I am ready to route wiring from the engine bay to the cockpit for my AFR meter. I am curious about where folks have routed wires / drilled holes, etc. I know I want to stay away from ignition components based on experience, and it looks like the current wire harness access point is pretty much stuffed. The connector is for an Innovate MTX-L and the connector to feed through to the cockpit is probably 1/2 an inch long, so it is more than fishing a couple wires.....
Appreciate any experience based advice. The exhaust bung is welded in place so this is next on the agenda so I can start working on tuning the D-Jet setup. Kind regards, |

I drilled a hole next to the release for the engine lid. same as your situation the connector for my AFR was too big to thread through existing wiring harness. then ran the wires behind the backpad and down the top of the tunnel under the rug.

I heard somewhere that part of the "firewall" was double layer sheetmetal and part was single. Something about the difference of above vs below the engine tin. Ideally for shortest route of wiring would be to go directly into or beside the tunnel I suppose. I was thinking of routing it there in order to get away with not having to run an extension cable for the gauge..... but that is an option.... I believe I have the 8 foot cable now.... which got me there with my 912. |
