Same with the front trunk area, most people try hiding the wires-
But if you want wiring to be seen, you can do like this-

I'd be afraid to fill my gas tank, change a spark plug or check my oil in one of those cars....

I would be afraid to even take one of the those cars on a road trip of any distance...look like total trailer queens to me.

Did you want customized examples (where wires are relocated or concealed) or did you want pictures of clean factory-installed wiring?
The gallery is filled with pictures of both.
RareAir's examples will likely give us all complexes!

It just depends on what you want. One you drive or one you haul in a trailer. |
