Steve, Mark, Thanks for the pics. I understand the wire routing now. Mark, your car is super clean. How do you keep it so clean? Mine isn't a show queen but I try to keep it clean but just driving it produces tons of dust and junk.

Mounted the battery tray today. I used the battery tray that held the battery in the trunk. No time to purchase a 914 tray and wait for delivery plus I saved $100. Now time to paint the trunk and body behind the bumper.

i had just replaced the positive line that runs directly from the starter to the battery, and that was at least 72inches in length. And you should just run the wires through the targa cups. There's one on each side of the car. Should just ground the battery to the chassis. At the stock location that's right next to the battery. And maybe relocate the battery to the center of the trunk. As close as you can get it to the front of the trunk.

Don't get me started on the front trunk. I want to get the car on the road. I've missed 2 weeks of beautiful weather here. You're right, the front trunk is shabby and is on the list.

The trunk is now painted. The new HVLP gun works great and the PPG paint has a finish like glass. Will let the paint cure a couple of days then reassemble the trunk. On to the battery wiring now.
