lucas' 4th gen - Vs3 spoiler fitted!

[lucas]

No welding, but a large amount of fiberglass in the inside to stop any sinking, and if it sinks, I will fix it

[lucas]

well since ive been working on the wifes civic the past few weeks a though... time to do something on the lude

so started on the re wiring and re routing





first of on the list was the fuse box relocation !
the wires will be going from the underdash fuse box location, as thats where the hole into the wing is, and going under the steering column



and then coming through the center section where the glovebox would be.. and as you can see.. PLENTY of length untill its time to join the plugs! better safe than sorry


I cut the glovebox with a dremel and a fine cutting attachment, i then drilled a few small holes for the screws and attached the fusebox






done a wee test fit.. but i forgot to take pictures of the part you need to cut away underneath
its not an important part, just plactic that the fusebox was hitting, you do however have to squish the heater tube thingy majig a little bit to get it on but apart from that.. its a very good fit !







ive not got it pluged in yet, we didnt have long to work on it today but 2 out of 4 plugs are extended and wired up

[NafemanNathan]

Good job Lucas. How have you extended the wires? Soldered?

[lucas]

cheers nathan, yea man they are soldered, my mate in the pics is a auto spark so hes helping me out and hes jobby hot at soldering
ive been tring to get him to sign up as he has a bb4

[NafemanNathan]

Handy!

[lucas]

it sure is

I soldered one end and he soldered the other and when i looked at the difference i was a bit ashamed
lol

[lucas]

rerouted a few more wires as i had a an hour free today, fuse box plugs are all wired up and just need to plug it in, next up is the battery relocation and then start on all the engine loom ones

soo many wires

[kris_aka_edu]

Jesus couldn't imagine the stress with this build. I couldn't bare it. Have you got a way of remembering where each of the wires are going to?

[claymore68]

Im sure auto sparks just shrug their shoulders when you compliment them but its an art in itself, and they dont seem to use wiring diagrams ...mad . Given the level of the build Lucas do you have it written down which order you are doing it or is it all in your head

[honda-hardy]

the wire diagrammed aren't in his head, no room, coz of all the voices.
