for people who've done it do you have to extend any part. is it a big job?
i had this hole on mine and i was gonna make it bigger and feed the loom through the inner wing, through the front of the crossmember (instead of ontop of it) and bring it out somewhere under/behind the metering unit to go to all those parts there.


what do i do about it rubbing the strut tops etc etc and does it catch anywhere else?

thanks.

 

Fit a grommet - should solve the rubbing through any holes

 

twins is your man when it comes to hiding your loom

drop him a pm

 

sound. you mean for asking him? or for him actually doing it?

 

^^^ Asking him, has loads of photos of it in his resto aswell IIRC

 

oh cool, i'll have a look through! cheers mate.

 

Im putting mine through the inner wing just as it leaves the fuse box, run it along the wheel arch side of the inner wing with std wiring loom clips only on the other side of where they usually are, through a hole in chassis leg (original hole lol) and down behind rad, not done it yet so dont know how much if any I need to extend loom, going Omex too so that will come through the bulkhead from behind the dash and up onto the inlet/coilpack etc.

 

i done it to mine, drilled a hole and gromet infront of the fuse box and another underneath the headlight to bring the loom up then it runs along the front panel, drivers side headlight loom needed extending a tiny bit as i had brackets welded to the inner arch with the loom running inside conduit, hope this helps

 

anyone got any before after pics. id like to see the difference.

the one thing which annoyed my about my S1 rst was how messy the engine bay looked- wires everywhere!!

 

look in my resto for pics, i have a few of the engine bay, not sure if i have any of before but you know how messy it would be, all over the inner wings etc

 

some pics when the loom is hidden.

 

Twins is the man..........

 

wow

 

not too bad to do at all alot more work involved will k jet tho

 

loving the white and black engine bay

 

That looks fookin amazing. With black hoses it would be almost factory lookin!!!

 

thank you!!
