First made the bulk panel and cutout for the fusebox

zip tie mounting like a boss!
Then test fit, still needs some work and I might be able to pull it off, but im still keeping my fingers crossed. Thoughts?

Keep in mind if choose this location, i will make it as flush as possible and form the plastic with the glove box curve
But still testing out other places, but i really dont want to have to find new latches for the glove box if it doesn't work out here lol
Yea.... now that i keep looking at the pics.... screw that! not feeling it lol Ill keep looking for another spot
Remove the air bag like I did and mount it there lol
safety first!
Finish making it and send it to me. I want to put my fuse box there.Quote:

SOOOOOOO next project was more out of curiosity lol
Never seen it on an rsx before so i thought i give it a shot. Driver headlight was fading bad and has little cracks on the inside that you can see when the light is on, so instead of buying a new light i figured I give this idea a try. Still not completely done yet and needs some cleaning up but here it is. only cost me $3 and a messed up light lol

Low beam and turn signal still connected without any interference. Not that the car will see much street driving to be used but the option is still there for say a car meet or something
Tube extends to the outside of the light so as to connect to a coupler. More pics later when finished

Nice work, I was looking into doing this same thing for track days.
that's bad ass. I always wanted to do one but the cars not a full blown track car. Awesome job.
What kind of tubing/ring is that for only $3?
Just a heads up... This was a pain in the pass to do lolQuote:

Dash Harness = the worst possible wiring to work with! but deleted more useless stuff like factory security components, cruise control module, all evap wiring, radio and speaker wiring, keyless entry components. Still hunting for more junk such as the relays, but i still gotta go through the schematics and make sure im not deleting important stuff
Heres where im at with it

Should have some big updates in the next couple of weeks :)
subd
wow. I hated the engine harness and fuse harness so much I'd commit suicide doing the dash harness also
Keep an eye out for my obituary.Quote:
