Dunno where it comes through the firewall, but i do know that each side comes off the same loom that the bumper indicators are on.
The two main places that bring the looms through are both inside the front guards. they thread through the sides of the firewall :wink:
How can you lose them :?: :?
Cheers,

instead of making a new thread i thought i would ask it here. I have found a cheap set of bfg muds with 4-5mm on front and 6-7mm on back. 32x11.50x15. Would they fit on my terrano without any lifting? if not would the be allgood with a 2" sus lift?

Also would the gearing be ok for that sized tyre?

Nah 32x11.5 will need a body lift at least. 50mm should do it :wink:
With tires that wide, rim off-sets are critical.
With my 32x9.5's Simex's (closer to 33"), I run zero off-sets, and it is still close with body lift. Suspension lift does nothing for putting bigger tires on.
Here are some pics of how close it is. I have had to do a bit of virtual lift too.

Hope this answers your question.
Body lift is real easy on a D21. They are nearly made to be lifted.
Brake lines all good. Steering shaft needs a bit of a hit. Hand brake cable needs a little work. Oil filter changes become easy :wink: (filter fits through wheel arch now)
My body lift took under 2 hours to do :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Gearing is a question no one has asked :D
Lets just say that the normal diff ratios for a Diesels are the middle of the three main ones out there :wink:

This is how 31x11.5 looked with no body lift, on 8inch wide rims @ zero off-set, to give you some idea how close it is.
