    Tip on depinning push the wire in, unlock then pull it this method always works for me.

    Top tip, when you solder, heat the wire with the iron from underneath and feed the solder in from the top in to the wire, you shouldn't cover your iron in solder. Flux paste on the wires also for a top job.

    I liked the video, but from what ive seen professional race cars do, is that they simplify the harness as much as possible, and make it as easy as possible to remove, that way during a race, if theres a small fire, or fender bender they can swap the harness in under 5 minutes to keep racing

      Heat shrink is just for a cleaner look. Unless it has the adhesive to make the connection water proof heat shrink will offer no extra benefit compared to e tape besides aesthetics. And we know 90% of enthusiast are gonna save money and purchase regular heat shrink

    Cringe at the re wiring. This is how cwr fires start. Not a safe method at all. It would be better to use de pin . Or use a new connector block if you have to cut the wires.

    The way you ran the wires was fine but you cutting and soldering the harness to “save time” is offensive

  • @dannyalves1656
    @dannyalves1656 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    The wire tuck routing was really cool but please learn how to solder before you cut the harnesses. You never cut a harness like that. Cut the wires at different lengths so they are not in one huge ball.
