I remember seeing a guy in canada or something where his shop does that stuff. So his labor was free of course, since he did the work, but I think something like over 100+hours goes into a REALLY GOOD wire tuck.. figure at least 3-4k for a decent wire tuck, and even more, like 6-8k (that's at $60/hr).

Is there any negatives to doing a wire tuck? Like can it cause any problems?

if you mess up the wires or dont solder them back together or crimp them correctly. I do not recomend putting the fuse box in the fender like most do I would make a bracked and put it in the car prolly on the passenger side near the pass. feet just in case you blow a fuse . Pita
