Title: Wiring On Firewall
Post by: mikeT on October 18, 2005, 04:57:53 PM

this little box that is screwed to the firewall with all the wires going to it, is it needed? can I just cut those wires and remove the box? On my other bug it has been removed although I was not the one that did it... so I dont know.

remember those wires come from various components, you dont want to ground out anything , cut them onr at a time , and cap indavidualy
