not much room under dash, especially if you have a Vintage air unit. We put them on the fender well near the factory battery location.

X2. Same here. If you mount under dash access is extremely difficult to access.

I move battery to trunk and mount fuse box in OEM battery tray.

I wouldn't mind it there the problem is the harness isn't long enough to then extend it inside the firewall so the wires come behind the engine.

how are you guys hiding the wires where they crossover from the fender to the engine?

[randy]

Another thought is to mount it above the glove box liner facing down. Make a plate that bolts under the dash pad that the fuse box mounts too. If i need to mess with a fuse i can just remove the top section of the glove box to access.

Another idea is to put it on the left of the glove box and cut a opening in the glove box

so how is everyone hiding the harness if the fuse box and ecu are in the passenger fender area? Harness doesn't look long enough to run it back inside the car and behind the engine.

The fuse box used is from the late 90s GM trucks with vortec engines. They have a plastic fender well mount bracket that can be modified to fit. I cut the long mounting legs down and build a bracket that bolts to the holes the battery tray mounted to. This allows easy removal of the box for service etc.

[randy]

ok but how did you run your wires to the engine without being seen crossing over the firewall?

[Efi69Cam]

I built a custom harness. I just threw the bracket suggestion out in case someone was interested.

I mounted my computer above the glove box and mounted the fuse box onto the heater box inside the car. It's black so it doesn't really stand out and its easy to access. My heater is disconnected btw, doesn't get cold enough here to need one.

Hey guys, long time no post! So I just wanted to let you know, as far as the GMPP fuse box mounting, we have some cool news! HPI came out with a universal tab that you guys may seriously want.... it allows you to mount this pesky box anywhere, VERY EASILY. We also have model specific Connect-and-Cruise bracket kits coming out as we develop them (68-72 chevelle/a-body available now) that mount the ECU, TCU, DBW pedal, wiring pass through, and fuse box with only drilling 3 holes total, WITH HIDDEN ecus and optimum harness routing. These also come with braided harness wrap kit that includes cloth tape, hardware, and tools for installing the sleeve!

Take a look at these tabs. $10 for 2 black coated tabs with stainless hardware, or 2.50 raw each in bulk format! Our new webstore launches in a week, but you can call us or email us for these products immediately. I think its a great problem solver at a killer price. I hope not to sound preachy, but you guys asked for solutions!

What are the other brackets pictured specifically for?? Great idea about the fuse box mounting tabs.

[steery]

Top left looks like accelerator pedal bracket, bottom right ECU bracket. I'm guessing the other 2 are for fuse box and trans controller. Would have been nice to have an all in one solution like this when i did my conversion.

[Yelcamino]

I like the harness wrap kit.

[HPIcustoms]

Thanks for the compliments guys! If there is interest for a specific model of car, we will build the brackets!

These ones are all available now.

Aren't those brackets for a Chevelle ?? No 1st Gen Camaro brackets ???

[HPIcustoms]

DT69, I will do camaro brackets asap if you're interested. Just gotta get a camaro from a customer.

Sounds good to me !

@HPI those tabs for the fuse box are awesome, I'll order some for the next time.

If I could make a suggestion on the throttle pedal bracket, slotting the lower two holes in an arc would allow the gas pedal to be adjustable and wouldn't take a whole lot of work on your end.

Cool Stuff!!

randy, I stripped the harness down, cut it to length, repinned it and sheathed it in nylon sheathing to get rid of the corrogated stuff. Came out nice, so I drooped part of the harness from the backside of the engine to the driver's side firewall bulkhead. Then I ran the power wires up the driver's inner fender/out fender gap to the fuse box that I mounted behind the driver's headlight.

the little droop part went under the brake master cylinder, and since the bay was black and the sheathing was black, it's hard to see.

[randy]

I built a bracket off of my DBW pedal. Sits really nice there and easy to get too

Digging up an old thread!

I'm looking for for a relay and socket that clips onto the GMPP Fuse box tabs that the mounts on page 2 of this thread are using.

Does anyone know what the tabs were used for originally?

Thanks,
Stan
