    Any Tips for removing interior body harness?

    I am going to be taking a complete body harness out of a parts car. I wonder if there are any tips in removing it with time and efficiency in mind. Obviously the engine side to the fuse box is straight forward but having never attempted it just looking for some tips of the mysteries that lay below the carpet.

    Thanks.

    My parts car is completely gutted except for the dash. All the wiring other then what is under the dash is pretty straight forward. I would personally take the time to label each connector and group similar wires together. Also a camera can be your best friend to help remind you how things were routed and what not. The hard part is getting all of the wiring through the hole in the fire wall which i have never done. Goodluck!

      pretty much what Zeke said. make sure to label and take pictures. it will save u a lot of time and headaches down the road. its really not too bad thoe. just take your time and do it right the first time.

        +1 for camera. under the carpet there isnt much. the bulk of it is under the dash.

          Well yesterday i went and freed the engine side, trunk side, and got the dash out but it was a air bag and abs car so it has EXTRA shit under there that made me not pull it all out till next time.

          I started labeling but as im sure you can guess time started to be a factor and there really arent any connectors that can go in the wrong space so you guessed it I just started taking it apart. I did zip tie like a JDM whore every thing into a nice rope like line so connectors didnt get stepped on and snagged.
