The loom has been sitting on the bench all weekend, and avoided a little. Its a GBS standard loom, everything clearly labelled. I offered it up to the chassis today to understand the routing;
The fiddliest part is feeding it through above the diff into the rear space. The loom is reasonably thin at this point so my current thinking is to tuck it up under the fuel/brake lines and tie wrap it in place.
The fuse box is just roughly in situ, it ends up vertically on the firewall/scuttle back panel:
Rear end, all straightforward, I'll need the fuel tank in place to understand the best route from the diff area around the rear panel. Generally though, lots of loom, certainly not stingy or so tight to make the precise route critical.
The tightest part is at the back of the tunnel where brake line, hand brake cables & fuel lines all have to co-exist without touching. The loom should tuck under & attach to the corrugated wrap around the fuel lines at this point.
I might will run the loom under the fuel lines, to sit on the diff bolt spacer, just to the left of where it is now then loom & fuel lines can be cable tied to the spacer. The loom running to the back of the car is so thin & light it really doesn't warrant its own set of clips & will tuck away neatly under the other lines for most of the run.
I'm going to leave it sitting there for a while and think on it before anything gets permanent & need to dig out my circuit tester to find the fuel pump relay signal line & ignition lines to wire in my FIA switch & inertia switch.
