    Installed the gauges.
    I wanted to finish building out the tunnel so i needed to install the loom.
    Started at the front of the car passenger side and fished the wires up the fender support to find that it is about 12"Name: DSCN1482.jpg Views: 311 Size: 106.8 KB
    " to short...............
    So then mocked up the rest of the loom all the way back to the taillights.
    Luckily that part of the loom appears to fit..........
