    Wiring

    After spendind some time work on our kit car, I have come to realize that a lot of people don't like working on the wiring in their car. I personally have no problem with it what so ever. How do you guys feel about it?

    I have no problem with it either. It seems like a lot of people are scared of automobile onboard computers too.

      My dad is an electrical engineer so he taught me wiring when I was young. I quite enjoy it.

            Wiring is my life. Kind of a waste of a life, but what the hell. I love it.

              Ya, I'm the same way. I can wire just about anything. What brought on this question was the fact that I just spent over 12 hours completely rewiring our Mercedes Benz Kit car. It has a Pinto engine and harness, so it took a while to trace everything, pull out old stuff and splice in and wire up new stuff.

                Wiring is disgusting. Give me large bolts and large parts, perhaps a plug or 2.

                  I'm not afraid of it but as long as it's still working I leave it alone..

                    I enjoy it. I'd much rather be doing wiring than anything under the car.

                          My cousin did the same to me, so I have no problem with it.

                            used to hate it until 4 mo. ago when I got the e30. I had to learn to love it.
