tonite i decided to do alittle work on the car. i went ahead and removed the ac/heater components from the firewall. i was going to go ahead and remove all of the srs wiring and computer but, i thought i'd better go over the wiring diagram again just to make sure i take out the correct wires. i think i've tracked down the srs harness from side to side. on the pass side i pulled the wiring from the hole behind the fender and it looks like the loom is blue to the srs computer. from the drivers side it looks like it's pretty easily traced as well. here's what i'm dealing with

i'm pretty sure all the srs wiring runs to this

i've already removed the front crash sensors and wiring from the front harness. actually it's all pretty much by itself it seems in the front. i think the dash harness srs wiring is all thats left to do. after the wiring i wanna remove the airbag from it's cover since it's not going to be used anyway (weight redux what what jk). anyway, if anyone else has experience removing the srs wiring and can tell me if i'm on the right track that'd be great. 

in other news, i bought an intake from another member. it's the ramhorn intake he made. if you haven't seen it looks like this

and this installed

i just like how unique it is. couldn't pass it up. i know it'll be awhile before it's installed but, at least i can look at it in the garage. 

i've been trying to read up on wiring lately to get myself familiar with the terminology and everything before i start tackling the rest of the loom and removing different systems. i just started with the srs because it seemed to be pretty straight forward. i have the wiring diagram pdf file downloaded. is there something out there that's simplified and tells more about which systems you don't need with the LSx? i've read a few of the stickies and when i look at the circuit diagram i get confused as to what's what. any advice guys? i've never been a wiring guy but since i've spent some time reading and trying to familiarize myself with everything i've definitely learned a good bit. i'm just gonna keep reading and learn all that i can. advice is always apppreciated. 

well that's about it for now. with the ac/heater components removed i'll be removing the carpet and the rest of the sound deadening soon. that'll have to wait until tomorrow tho. thanks for looking. any input or advice is always appreciated.
