Battery cable routing on 69t

Post by leedurrant73 »

Hello.

What is the correct cable routing for the battery power cable from starter to battery?

It looks like mine was came through a hole passenger side near petrol tank (on RHD CAR)

Anyone know the full routing?
Thanks

Ok so I’ve found from web it goes through the tunnel to the back then to starter. Am I best to feed a new from front to back or back to front ?

Any thoughts?

Being a single cable I don't think it matters which way you feed it tbh. Personally looking at the route, I'd say it might be less fiddly if you start at the back poking it thru it's designated hole.

Remember to put any rubber boots and grommets on at the appropriate time to save having to undo things again later.

I'm looking for a pre-impact bumper 911S or other high-revving 911 to restore - please let me know if you see one.
