Engine bay aesthetics

Just painted the dash and bezels black on black and replaced the dash pad and restored the door and rear panels. Still waiting on a few interior parts, but almost there.

One thing I did to help hide wires in the engine bay was take out the wire block next to the brake master cylinder. I just put a piece of metal over it and riveted it on and sealed it... (I'll patch that in proper when I go for paint next time..)
Anyways there's one plug that goes to the headlights and most of that stuff and one plug that goes to the engine. What I did was put that box or that plug in underneath the dash and ran all the headlight wires in a plastic loom inside the driver side wheel well and threw a hole that I made back there. Then I plugged it in inside the cab. I did the same with all of the air condition stuff. I ran the hoses directly out the front drivers fender well underneath the nitrous 1 gallon fuel tank which is where the battery used to be around in front inside the front bumper up through the passenger fender inside the wheel well and into the passenger compartment....
The second plug for the engine I made a whole down low right above the transmission put a grommet through there and ran the wires for the distributor alternator oil sending unit water sending unit and main battery connection. I ended up running the wires in between my tunnel ram inside a gold heat shield loom... It's visible but looks tidy... Also inside that is the controls for my electric fan and electric field pump and an extra wire if I wanted to run my electric water pump as well which is another thing I might do after I get it painted I'm kind of back and forth on that....
