Default Routing Wires

I'm trying to get a load of my dials in today and I have been routing a lot of my wiring from the cabin through the grommet for the AC overflow pipe into the engine bay.

This is now quite full, I've had a look and apart from the grommet on the (wrong) drivers side of the engine bay I can't see any others.

Are there any that I've just not seen over on the passenger side?

I need room for another half dozen wires and if I crame them through the AC pipe, I'm worried I'll push the hose shut.

I couldn't find the other end in the cabin, wasn't sure it was going into a compartment behind the dash I couldn't get too ..

Will have a look now

I use that for all mine.

The other side is a bit of a pig to get though!

They are all far too blury ..

But here is a half way pic.

The box has 4 temp dials, 'engine bay'/'intake'/'after charger'/'after cooler'.

The SPA is red lit and shows oil temp and pressure (well it will will when I find a correct oil sandwich plate)



On the Radio door is the Zeitronix LCD box with Lambda, AFR, Boost, EGT.

I then have above the main dash, a Apexi RSM and VAFC .. I'll probaby try and hid the Apexi & Zeitronix somewhere like the CD holder. As it's getting far too fussy.

IT is all a bit OTT, hence why I wanted the guages set back under the dash.
I've just gotta move the others.

Been playing with the G-sensor on the RSM too, it measures your 0-100kmph, 400m runs etc. But enter the weight and it'll guesimate your BHP ..
