I'd like to eliminate the electrical relay box and associated wiring that's under the passenger seat. Most of the connections look pretty bad and a PO did bypass some of the connections.
I'm never going to restore this car back to stock '75 specs. I think this it's just something that's eventually going to go wrong. Has anyone else eliminated this stuff? ... and how did you do it? |

Bypass the two large yellow wires, other than that the other wires can just be abandoned. Leave them in the relay base or wrap them to assure they do not short to ground if you don't have the relay base any longer.
