I need help determining which of these can go now.Obviously the car does not have anything in the creature comfort dept. left,no air bags,no dash.
Both doors are being gutted to facilitate Nascar door bars so no windows or motors.

1&2 black boxes are on same wire leg of harness and were on the fire wall side by side behind ducting.

7&8 relays share their same leg of harness also close to each other. The rest were here and there.

5 is what I think is the "keyless entry" although I never got a fob or even know if it had keyless. It was located pass. side by right hand foot attached to wall. Has TRW on it.

4 silver box is the "body control"I think is this part of air bags? Air bags are gone.

Can anyone who has done this tell what can come out now?

Also on the driverside tucked up under the dash metal left side of steering colum is thi silver box that has 2 multi-wire plugs into it. Below picture

Let me inform you that.....you are on a slipery slope to HELL! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

The short answer is....as long as you don't need any of the stock components (such as power windows, radio, wipers, dash board, lights, etc.etc.) to work....it can all go!

That is what I ended up doing....

No stock wires are INSIDE the car anymore. I had to bring a few wires in from the fire wall to an aftermarket fuse panel I made up in the car to power the PCM and underhood power center (fuse block). I also ran my own wires to toggle switches for ignition and fuel pump, and a button for the starter. Actually, it was not that hard.

But, before doing this I recommend getting a wiring manual...it is HUGE...and studying it REAL good....took me a MONTH! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) And look at Shoebox's website....he has pics and part descriptions for all the boxes you are showing. And go slow.

If you want, I can send you a file that has my homemade fuse box diagram on it, and give you some pointers on what wires you will need, but you will have to live in the manual and spend some intimate time with test lights to make sure you have the correct wires....I wouldn't take my word that the "orange" wire is the right one over the internet...
