not much room under dash, especially if you have a Vintage air unit. We put them on the fender well near the factory battery location.

X2. Same here. If you mount under dash access is extremely difficult to access.

I move battery to trunk and mount fuse box in OEM battery tray.

I wouldn't mind it there the problem is the harness isn't long enough to then extend it inside the firewall so the wires come behind the engine.

how are you guys hiding the wires where they crossover from the fender to the engine?

Another thought is to mount it above the glove box liner facing down. Make a plate that bolts under the dash pad that the fuse box mounts too. If i need to mess with a fuse i can just remove the top section of the glove box to access.

Another idea is to put it on the left of the glove box and cut a opening in the glove box

so how is everyone hiding the harness if the fuse box and ecu are in the passenger fender area? Harness doesn't look long enough to run it back inside the car and behind the engine.

The fuse box used is from the late 90s GM trucks with vortec engines. They have a plastic fender well mount bracket that can be modified to fit. I cut the long mounting legs down and build a bracket that bolts to the holes the battery tray mounted to. This allows easy removal of the box for service etc.

ok but how did you run your wires to the engine without being seen crossing over the firewall?
