I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

^^running it through the engine bay is a good security measure. where it does meet the front t support you should fab up some kind of shield so people can't reach in there and pop your hood and rob you stuff.

ok here are the pictures
Image that is the grommet in the engine bay, right next to the brake booster
Image a better shot of the area you have to work with
Image inside the car, its up and slightly left of the clutch pedal
Image how i have the cable running for now, it interfears with nothing, when i change the carpet i am going to run it under the carpet for even less of a chance of it interfearing with anything
Image it runs above the intake manifold
Image snakes over the battery
Image best sticker on my car EVAR

Thanks for the pics, temp!

I'll definately give that a try, but I'll run it through a little more hidden-like. When you re-swap, how are you going to run the cable through defferently?
