I just made this same post in the "General Chassis" section but I also posted it here because I have a '93 Hatch. I'm sorry for the confusion.
I know this has been brought up numerous times before but I figured I would start my own thread on it.
I have a few questions about this. First let me start off with... I have the basic idea of a wire tuck and have a relatively good idea of wiring and how it works and so on. My main reasoning behind wanting to wire tuck my eg is because, well it just looks super clean. Another reason behind it is my harness is pretty much fucked straight outta the ECU. To put it plainly I have at least three wires coming out of my A and D clip that are about two feet long and just get cut and go to nothing. Coming out of my A clip I have, I counted, SEVEN wires that are all cut and just ran into ONE 10 gauge wire and disappear into the harness somewhere. I don't have a problem with DIY'ing but I feel that it would be entirely too much work to try and correct all of the problems with my harness. Now onto the questions...
1) Has anyone ever had any experience with buying pre-tucked wiring harnesses?
2) I looked up a few and found three companies that did them Chase Bays, Rywire, and Wire-worx. Has anyone heard anything on these companies? Good or bad?
3) Do you think it would just be better to just buy a stock harness and tuck that myself? I know it would be much cheaper to do but would it be better?
Here are the links for the pre-tucked harnesses I found

http://www.rywire.com/catalog/milspe...rness-p-1.html
http://wire-worx.com/stage-1-braided...e-harness.html
And this last one is a "budget" harness.

Anything is appreciated. Thanks everyone.
