#1 Fitting alternator loom - running car

Post by iani » Fri May 19, 2017 11:27 am

Due to some electrical issues and the generally poor state of my original alternator loom, I am looking to replace it. How difficult is it to route the fuse & ignition wiring inside a car that is fully assembled?

Job done, Angus' definition of easy and mine are slightly different. The new harness fits perfectly, not a spare mm in length though so not the easiest fit.
