        Why are you removing the fuse box? There's no convenient way, it's a lot of wires

          I already have a shit ton of hours shaving my engine bay. Mine as well get it done the right way so I don't have regrets when painted

              Most people I've seen just unbolt it and wrap it up to the firewall. Then you just have to either hang it out of the way our move it while painting.

                  Anyway to do it from behind the dash? Instead of de pinning all of it

                        You can pull the whole harness out through the firewall, but that is a lot of work to unhook EVERYTHING.
