Default Relocating the fusebox without having to extend any wires?

I've read of a couple methods of relocating the fusebox without having to extend any wires, but have yet to be able to confirm any of them.

Can anyone definitively tell me if there is a way/place to relocate the fusebox which does not require extending any wires (or maybe just 1-2 at the most)?

Thanks.

When I did my wire tuck I only had to extend a few wires. Biggest one was the EPS wires going to the rack and the altenator wire. Also had to extend the wires for the horn, radiator fan and extend the bunch of ground wires ( the ones that are all grouped together on the front passenger side). Maybe a couple more but it wasn't bad at all. I used O'mally's write up as my guide. https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/837...-winter-build/

I'm the same way as you man.

After working in a dealership setting as a tech for a few years, there is nothing I hate more than hacked up OEM harnesses, ughhh the amount of headaches I dealt w/ because of it still gives me nightmares.


I am also looking for a better alternative

See, this is what I'm talking about... It says in his first post:
I also did not have to extend any wires for the EPS or the fusebox by mounting everything in this location.
And yet you said you had to extend wires? Ugh...

When I did mine, I only had to extend the wires to the power steering. I think it was just a few wires. Super easy to do actually, and I'd never done it before. Car steers great.

Just locate the fusebox as high and forward as you can without it pushing against the passenger fender liner. Reconnect all the wires you can before bolting it down, and you'll be able to see what's left. Instead of extending the horn wires, I just re-routed them so they'd reach.
