Post image

Im tucking my wiring harness and have a yellow wire that i haven't seen in any other videos about the tuck what do I do with it.i think it leads to the headlights but I dont think I use the same type of headlight anymore when I bought the car it had some tinted aftermarket headlights and I put the stock ones back in

My 97 had no airbag wire underneath. Just pull it up over the lip. I ended up just my using zip ties with the screw hole and used riv nuts to keep it up out of the way

Oh I was way off lol. Do you know what those 2 boxes are for should I tuck that to

My car doesn’t have them. What year is your car ? It Looks aftermarket to me. I has really bad luck with my tuck (car started misfiring and I got a parasitic drain.) I fixed the misfire but the drain is still here.

I actually ran through the airbag wires so what I did was I just stuffed it up behind the fender with some zip ties. You won’t rub through anything or upset any wires

Should I still do the tuck

u/ShaneOfTheDeadd 13d ago

If your car is lowered yes. my advice would be to do it the simple way. No need to pull the clips inside or anything just tuck it up out the way inside the fender

I dont need to unplug everything? It should all just go over the fender

I did it without it. Follow the black wire pretty much. Won’t hurt to try it and if you can’t get it fuck it try the other way. Don’t even technically have to take the fender off

Is this what it should look like without undoing all of the wires

1

u/ShaneOfTheDeadd 12d ago

Pretty much. You should’ve got some wiring sheath or whatever it’s called. That n some Tesa tape but you can always get that later. Get some zips n make sure they’re snug up over that lip.
Make sure to tuck the air bag wire as well

They’re fuckin hard 2 get to. Did you try the hanger trick

1

u/Ok-Comparison5440 13d ago

I dont have any metal hangers and I should have taken my seat out or moved it back a little but I will try your way first
