Post exact weights of weight reduction you have done!
im thinking about making a new 2012 version of a weight reduction thread called ''weight reduction 101. tricks, tips, parts, and idea's. i do not know though. its a lot of work i think.
anyways i need some help. notice the 20A yellow fuse next to the black relays. on the box it shows its the music note. i would guess that indicates the radio. that fuse has a red/white wire and a big white wire coming off it. that red/white wire is a few feet long going in threw the fender well into the harness on the A piller. on my factory un toughed dash harness there is no wire mating to the same red/white wire on the fender harness. so i removed it but it just does not make sense to me. any help would be great.

I am doing the same thing. When eliminating the starter relay did you have to jump/modify anything? Or did you just pull the relay and the wiring related to it? I wasn't sure on this one and just left it. I heard it had something to do with one of the clutch switches. I was going to move it into the main fuse box as well but if I can remove it all together that will be even better!
Thanks for the advise!
And why do you still have the yellow ABS related fuse still in your fuse box? I am referring to the big yellow one next to the two fan related fuse/relay?? I removed mine. You don't have ABS correct??

I still have the ABS, although I'm not getting power for it from the fuse box. I just didn't like the idea of the power blade sticking up waiting to short something out so I put the fuse back in.
As for weight, I'm a fat *** at 180 pounds, I could lose 20 and be at the weight that works best for me. I've been working on it though it's gotten noticably harder to lose weight. I guess it's true what they say about your 30s. Damn it.

now what i will do is connect the driver fender harness back into the car and whatever wires in the dash harness that no longer meet to a wire on the driver and passenger harness's i will remove from the dash harness. i sure hope this works.
otherwise ill be buying a new dash and driver fender harness and installing it without touching a thing.

i am an ANIMAL. WTF have you people got me into. here is a minor update.
ok here is all the plugs i pulled off the driver side fender harness/fuse box

and here are the wires from that hanress

today i went inside the car and started on the dash harness. i cut off the air bag connectors and i just followed the cut wires and de pinned them where ever they went to.
here are the plugs i removed

and here are the wires

i am not done yet. i need to plug in the driver side dash harness and see what wires i can remove from the dash harness. but this is a good start here.
sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oo do you guys think my car will start??? im skeptical. if this does not work out im just going to buy a new dash and fender harness and leave it alone.

BJ cut them off if i cant hit a 9.9s. s%^t the car will weigh 175lbs less and make about another 50hp on E85 then its last glory 10.1 run. i honestly can not figure out why it will not do it now as it sits. it just does not add up.
