[QUOTE="tommymilan311, post: 8487970, member: 664761"] All I'm doing is just following OEM wires and taping mine new runs to the old one. I was going to loom it all up but I ended up covering the wires just about completely in tape. I still might before everything goes back together but I think I'll need some loom with a bigger ID.
