Finished the extra rear loom off at the front. Tesa tape. Tucked away along the factory loom.
Added some labels because it’s the only way to know what they are without a diagram. If someone opens this up, they will know straight away.
I dislike the extra camera cable like that, but it will have to do. I’ve never made an RCA cable before, and not being able to test it, I’m not going to make that moment now. I think in hind sight, next time, I will do away with the RCAs and convert to wire. Factory VE VF camera works fine via two wires. It’s not a long distance for the signal to run.
It includes two or three spare wires for adding lighting to the tray area at a later date. That will be led strip hidden under aluminum u channel along the lid and switched with a extra long Narva door switch.
This is the rear firewall where the loom exits the interior. Rear seat is still out, showing the storage compartments that are under the seats.
Still have seal up the hole I made in the seal. Left a little extra inside if I ever have to maneuver the loom grommet for some reason. Handy.
Will reconnect the earth after I clean it up a bit.
Also fixed in the speaker looms and reattached the splitters. Held with Velcro. Labeled on the top and labeled on the connections.
Cable tied along the factory loom. I’ve added foam along the factory loom to protect from rubbing.
All the looms terminate/are plugged around the kick panel just as the factory looms do. That way if the dash ever comes out, the looms I’ve added are disconnected in the same place and make the job as easy as possible. All are labeled to make it easy if someone else does work on it.
