Tidying up Electrics.
Discussion
One of the areas of my car that needs a good sort through and clean is the area by the battery,its a mishmash of wires covered in the odd fluid spill mixed up with some road dust and the odd leave to result in a .......mess!
I want to take a real close look in this area and try to tidy it up,ive even thought about moving the battery so i can make room for the power pack thats fixed under the plenum and move it to a cooler area.
Where do i start?,well i spent some of today looking at tidying it up armed with cable ties but still wasnt satisfied so its going to take a little more thought,any ideas welcome. :)
YUCK!

Howabout going to bed as 4.19 a.m. is a little early to be worrying about ZR1 wiring
On a serious note, you could consider moving the battery to behind the seats to improve weight distribution.
Howabout my days are the opposite of yours cos i work nights D'oh!
On a serious note ive been thinking of doing this,i might have to seal one of the storage boxes of and vent it depending on what battery i use.

not a bad idea, Mark Haibeck sells the kit to move the battery to the trunk.

Hi Jordi,i was thinking mainly of creating room to get the electrics away from under the plenum,without them there a plenum change could be done in minutes plus they would not be subject to heat.

... but I suppose without them there you wouldn't need to pull the plenum that much anyway

The main purpose of plenum pulling is the vacum lines,they seem to leak every now and again and plugging the rear connection in is a right PITA.
