A different kind of repair on the power lead to the left fog light. These are bare wire with some solder tinning, that get clamped in a screw connection.

I also stopped by the body shop today, and saw some good progress.

Priming is all done, and spending a day or two for the paint to cure.

Back to wire work today. I started wrapping the harness with new tape, working forward from the rear firewall.

But working forward, I encountered segments that still have the genius PO undercoating, plus remnants of carpet glue and foam padding.

Unwrapping the original tape leaves spots of undercoat crud. Time for more GoofOff.

looking good. I bet this is a job (wire cleaning/wire wrapping) where you are alone and play your favourite music and work away the hours,,,,,

You are correct. I alternate between music and audio books depending on my mood.

Back to work today, cleaning and wrapping "forward" from the brake pedal switch. I am still carrying the leads for the relocated fuel pump forward.

Coming to the "big junction" near the fuse-relay panel. The wires for the fuel pump continue forward, through the big rubber grommet.

I continued with all the wiring under the dash. That finishes everything in the interior and rear.
