My Fuse Box Relocation and Cleanup Project - Part 27

The wiring harness is also done. I ended up adding 12 new connectors from Ladd Inc. The fuse box has 3 (1 pin DTHD, 4 pin DTP, and 31 pin HDP20), one is just for the injectors (12 pin DT), two each just inside the cabin at each fender (4 pin DTP and 31 pin HDP20), one inside the firewall for the ecu harness (47 pin HDP20), one just for the windshield wipers (6 pin DT), and two go between the ecu and fuse box harnesses near the ecu (12 pin DT and 12 pin DT). The picture below is the harness laid out like it goes in the car, and the new connectors are circled.

There are multiple connectors at some points because I had a few large gauge wires that wouldn't fit in my main connector. I also upgraded the headlight wires to 12ga. in case I go with HID's in the future. I needed a connector for the windshield wipers because I routed it through plates I made that used to be for the cabin air intake. The clutch cut wire for dsmlink was routed along the dash harness that I did not modify, and from there goes through a factory connector to the ecu harness. I had some spare wires laying around that had the right pin on the end to fit in that connector. The knock sensor and o2 sensor wires were a little tricky to get through connectors because they have a shielding wire inside. I had to use a separate pin for the shielding wire and keep it right next to the other wires when going through the connector. A little bit of heat shrink on the shielding made sure it wasn't exposed. The fuse box uses two 4ga. wires to get power from the distribution block.

Powdercoated the ecu.

Powderocated a few more parts in the engine bay and put them in. More things have been put in the engine bay since this picture, but this is pretty much how it looks.
