Thanks to Murci Me for the confirming I was keeping the right wires.  ::thumbup

removed all the plastic wire loom.  Not sure I like the stuff as it was all brittle.

The REDOs wiring theme is "twist them together"  & "duct tape"  Only use electrical tape if necessary. Don't use any solder as you might burn yourself :LL:

Barely used HID system for sale cheap, wire included ::tongue

Started the REDO for a brief moment.  ::toothy

I put a brace to make the rear more rigid.  Unfortunately it was in the way of the exhaust pipe by about an inch.

Will get a new one.

The REDO came with a Magna Flow system. Will have to see how it sounds with the ZZP front and rear headers (power Log)

When you sorta know what you are doing things go faster.  Driver side has taken about a 1/3 of the time as the passenger side ::toothy

Wow fast shipping on the morimoto system!  The Internet !!! I am located out in the sticks and I dont think I could get as far on the build without it.  As well as my local hardware store...
 
Also having folks to contact with questions and the comments on here is a must have!  Thank you :notworthy

Friday is the day to fire up the REDO,  all necessary fluids have be obtained.  Hopefully goes as well as it does on the "reality" car shows. :LL:

SM: Here is a pdf of the Sebring wiring.  Hope this helps.

Thanks 01!

The link for the diagram mainly has the engine functions.

Autozone has a diagram for the headlight wiring.  But the internal wiring of the switch isnt on the diagram.

There are 4 wires, purple being the one that is spliced.  I can cut the wire and see what function it controls.  Or trace the red wire into the fiero and see. ::scratch

SM: Is the purple wire Fiero or Sebring?  What year Sebring column?
01

The purple wire is on the Serbring light switch, which is from year 95-99.

There is a mystery red wire (from the fiero side) wrapped  around the purple one.

Hope you resolve your wiring issue, problems in the wiring can be tricky to find.  At least it looks like you are going in the right direction.

Yes I feel pretty good about the progress made.  I have decided to get the Morimoto set up with relays and start fresh from the power distribution block. Then remove the old system and wiring, because its a god awful mess!
