I tell you guys that find wiring easy....this is making my brain hurt so flipping bad. I think because this is my first time doing any wiring. mechanics are my thing, give me a bolt or a screw and I'm good. wiring has NEVER been something I cared about.

I just have to keep telling myself to do one little part at a time, but when I'm trying to make the harness nice and neat and I seal something up and then have to take it apart again because I forgot something....geesh what a headache!

as for the wires that are not needed like the wipers and the A/C....I just cut them at staggering lengths and put stuffed them into the braided loom so it looks like they never existed and then I pulled the fuse so they don't get power. and since they are at staggering lengths, they wont touch incase a fuse is placed back in and burn the harness up or the car.

I'm starting to think I could have just bought the 8 circuit harness as I'm never putting a/c or electric wipers or backup lights or a third brake light....etc etc. so many extra wires I don't even care about. but the bang for the buck is good. hell this thing has wires for door jamb switches....I did consider that....but I'd have to drill the car and I'm not really liking that idea as much.

anyways, just a little rant after not getting much done last night other then repeating work I already did and sweating my ass off.
