Title: Engine bay wiring help
Post by: winky on July 16, 2016, 09:05:45 pm

i need some ideas for running wiring in my engine bay neatly... ill be running 3-4 sets of aftermarket lights, in cab winch controls, relays, plus the original wiring for every thing. i want to try and keep it as neat as possible without having wires everywhere. any advice or pics would be great. im looking into using nylon cable clamps like these

use corrugated split loom, or even the wire braid(this is harder to pull over bundles of wire, then split loom) and then try these clips, these are what normally come stock, and don't require you to remove completely to fix/add to the loom.

split loom is also easier to branch off, just pull the wire out, and throw a little electrical tape around loom on either side of the wire to prevent it from coming all the way out
