jonescg's eCRX pre-build thread!

I started to re-install the HVAC and associated wiring looms. Also started to work out where to run the various HV cables - looks like the only way I can get them into the engine bay is via the cabin - the sway bar is too close to the bottom of the chassis so I can't sneak it under. Probably not a bad outcome since the main cable to the battery is likely to be inside the cabin too.

No room in the "transmission" hump?

Being a front wheel drive, there's only a tunnel where the gear shift rods and exhaust went, but that's not the problem. The problem is the sway bar with it's raised bend (to clear the exhaust and gear shift rods) is just so damn close to the body I risk pinching the cables.
I think having the cables accessible inside isn't a bad idea though, as I can access them for coulomb counting.
