no my fog lights work and i can see those connectors. i think it has to do with the air bag, but i don't know. reason why i really car is i'm in the middle of hiding the wires and the connector won't fit through the hole in the fenderwall.

+1 that was my guess. Does it have a green wire? When I cut the wire on my old fox, I remember their being a green wire.

thats exactly what i did.

Hey since you've done the tuck, what did you do with eec-iv self test thingy, did you hide that to or leave it in the corner?

Did you have to extend the master cylinder wire? cuz i have to and i also need to extend the ac wire

Is there a way to move the coil? and get an extended coil wire?

Sorry i had to throw in a pic, i'm so excited on the outcome of the wire hiding process
