[s-cars] Stop the comedy! Real issues to solve!

[calvinlc at earthlink.net]

I just use the relay box on the driver's side near the firewall as a
pass-through to the interior.  Just drill a small hole to run the wires
through and then they fall right down into the passenger compartment.

Plugs and coils are new last September.  Less than 1k miles on both.

OXS is up soon - I just got an Innovate LC-1 WBOXS and am trying to
figure out how to route the wires.  Speaking of which - can anyone
help me out here?  I was trying to find a grommet to pass these wires
through, but am not having much luck.

As soon as I can figure that out, the OXS will get changed.

Thanks Andrew.

Eric
