measure at least twice.
dont put any ends on/make hookups until most of (if not all of) it is routed.
figure out where its going to end and how it gets there before pulling wire one
pull an extra circuit or two while youre at it.  extra is nice.  short 1 sucks much
wire ties are cheap.  use as many as you can, even if you know you'll have to cut the new ones off shortly thereafter
get twice as many replacement fuses as you think you'll need
go slow, do it once.


good luck.

Nervous as all hell, first thing on the list is to remove the bulkhead  measure adn i'm going to rivet in some  metal that will be black into that hole i can't weld plus teh engine compartment is painted already. But i got some grommets to feed the wires there.

I'm kinda tempted to run the wiring through the inner fender to ge ti tout of the way and keep ti all clean, i got natural holes to come out so we will see.
