Yes, I have moved the ground wire. Also doing a partial wire tuck.

I'm going to flip the booster so the vacum line runs on the bottom and going to run the washer fluid hose thru the hood, and tuck the wires for the wiper motor
Image

Going to tuck the fuse box, but not the battery. Wait a minute. What happened to the fuel filter?? LOL!

The Dupli-Color is being used because it's what was used in this DIY. Since I've never painted calipers before, I'm going to try and Exactly follow the directions

The fogs are from ebay. They seem to be of decent quality, but the mounting brackets dont seem to put them in the right position to look flush from the front side. I'm going to bend the brackets a little to get them to sit more flush.

The switch that came with the fogs was junk too. The pins were bent so I had to take the switch apart and re-bend the pins so they would fit into the connector.
