can you do a how to "relocate fuse box" i think i might wanna do this before i mount my horizontal mount intercooler





very nice and clean set up
I can probably do that... It's REALLY easy.



All you do is unbolt the fusebox, unsecure the wires from under the bumber support and unwrap them. Then you need to cut the 3 wires (Forget the colors) that run to the passenger side. The rest you can just pull to the other side while attached to the fusebox. I shortened them so I wouldnt have to stuff them up in the bumper... It's really just a matter of cutting and resoldering the wires. I'll get more pics when I get the chance.



All I did for the bracket is used a piece of aluminum from Home Depot and bent it with a vice and a hammer to have a 2" space in the middle to hole the box.. SIMPLE. Took like 10 minutes.. Then I polished it.



I'll get some pics when I get home...
