Hi,
I am in the middle of installing a new wiring harness (centech) and can't remember where the main wire is secured to the bottom of the dash (toward the inside of the cab or toward the firewall). I have the clips that came off of the dash but it looks funny either way I install them. Anyone got some pics I can check out?
As always, Thanks in advance!

A few before and after.

One thing I've run into with the Centech harness, is when using an aftermarket radio you need to be cautious about how low on the dash you cut the hole for the radio.
The bundle of wires is pretty thick and may not like to share space with the radio itself.

You can warm it up and sort of "knead" it into a more oval shaped bundle, rather than more round-ish, but that's not necessarily going to work in every case.

Good luck.

I noticed that the wires were going to be close to the radio. Unfortunately the dash was cut and painted before I new that little bit of info. I think I can make it all work out.
I appreciate all the pics as well. Its great to see the before and after shots. I wish I would have taken a before shot of mine. This whole project has been a learning experience for the next time I build one!

Thanks to all for the help!
