I can't get the stock ka24de wiring out of the firewall. It seems that the heater core inside the dash and the abs is blocking my shot at getting the wiring out. What should I do?

the heater core shouldn't be in the way. the blower box does prove to be a pain at times. You just have to work the ECU plug up and around the blower to get it out. Also, don't forget to make sure that all the plugs are unplugged from under the dash. I've left one still plugged in on accident and struggled with the harness for the better part of an hour before I realized that a plug was my hangup.

as for the ABS module. It's big and stuff, but shouldn't prove too much of a hastle. You may want to consider getting some help from a friend to have someone guiding the plugs from under the dash out while someone helps pull from outside.

yes have someone feed it through the firewall and someone pull on it... took out the harness lots of times... i remember one time it got caught on the fan and ripped out the whole harness.... so i know its not that hard to remove it through the firewall....
