HELP!!!! how did you rout the passenger wires?!

i'm out in my drive way trying to change wires and i'm having trouble routing them. i could barely get the stock 7mm wires out of that "wire holder" that sends the wires around the front corner of the block...so how do i get 8mm ones back into those? there is a metal line of some sort running right over top that "wire holder" that is in my way. did you just pull that away from it a little bit to make room or what?
please help, i've only got a coupld more hours before it's suppose to storm!

if you are installing 8mm wires, they should fit, although its going to taka alot of effort on your part to make them fit...its best to go the OEM way of routing the wires IMO to avoid any plug wires getting burned by the exhaust.

well i'm sure they will fit in the oem routing but not without bending that line out of the way that runs over top of them.
i'll go give that a try.

If you're using larger than stock wires route than over the power steering pump instead of behind it. Makes it much easier.
