Hi,

Does anyone know how to run wire from fuse to the driver side. I searched but didn't find anything.

Thanks in advance for your help.

That's fuse tap. Which is first step. How do i run this wire from the fuse in glove box to the driver side under the stearing wheel?

Just drop down the underdash panels on both PS & DS for easier access and fish the wire across...

I usually use a stiff piece of long wire (like a straightened coat hanger), start under DS and get wire to go thru all the crap behind the dash to PS, tape wire to end of coat hanger where it comes out under dash on PS, then pull the coat hanger back thru - taking the wire with it.

I just did something like this not long ago. It's maximially easy to access the run if you pull out the glove box, radio, and pedal trim. It sounds like more work than it's worth, but really it's maybe 10 screws and it's 100 times easier to reach everything. Plus, then you can zip tie your new wire to existing harnesses and be sure you don't end up with any annoying rattles.

Thanks.

Once I dropped the under dash panels on both sides, running the wire was easy there is enough space to run wires. Thanks for the help.
