I should start working on my doorless mod, got a ton of wires to deal with. I was just gonna make it simple and use bullet style connectors.

that sounds like it could be confusing quickly, connecting up a bunch of those every time...i may have to do that for my passenger side door. the drivers side plugs are easy to get to, but i just can't reach up into my kick panel far enough/fit my hands in far enough to unhook the pass side. (mine's 97+, so probably different from yours)

Eh i can handle watching up the wire colors. Although I didn't think of the OEM harness plugs, i should see if it's reasonably accessible.

definitly do that first, 3 big, easy plugs that take more work to get to beat 20 little, tough to work with connectors anyday.

Don't use those if you have a bunch. Trailer plugs work 100 times better. Plus the bullet ones are heat shrink and will stick together...

Power windows and locks, so i got a bunch. I was just thinking i could go get a plug off some random junkyard car, or even make one. Nah getting one would be cheaper now.

X2


1. Gave her a much needed bath(lovely Michigan salt)
2. Installed hood pins, no longer fusing with needle nose pliers to pop the hood.
3. Took off the AC condenser, compressor, accumulator, and lines.

I now have some room under the hood looks nice oils changes just got easier. Considering moving the alternated up top now since I have the space.
