It's way too involved for anyone less than a wiring expertOkay so it’s relocating what can be relocated and cleaning up the existing connections?

Yeah I’m just trying to figure out what to clean with. Right now I use mothers wash, quick detailed and a meguires white wax with an F11 top coat to wash wax and clay bar the car but I’m looking to get better. I’ve seen cars with every stick on piece possible and I know you can overdo it so I’m just trying for some extr stuff and a nice good shine and polishClean, clean, and clean some more. Get the places you don't think people will see. I use to daily my 01 and show it as well. That was a rough time. Personally I'm more impressed with a clean daily then something that has every stick on piece possible.
For my big cleaning I do the clay bar and Meguiars 105/205. Depending on how much work it needs. Then I either follow it up with a carnuba or sealer. That usually happens for a couple of big shows I do. The rest of the year is up keep. A quick coat of wax after washing it. Or even using the spray wax I found and like. I usually just wipe down the engine bay to get the dirt off.Yeah I’m just trying to figure out what to clean with.

I was just at a show where participants voted for the 3 cars they liked the best. This girl with a '12 v6, rough plasti dip wheel and a kinda clean engine won best of show. Her car is Lava Red and everyone just loved that.Fixed all of the paint, and what’s the difference between voted and judged
I follow this guy. He's got some great methods in detailing/restoration. Really like his videos. I also used this method when I sold my '08. The kid that bought it thought I was a dealer detailer. It's legit, and doesn't take a lot of time... on a mustang anyway. I did this to my F250 once, and probably never again lol. That's a lot of f'n work.
Edit: I picked up most of the equipment he uses on craigslist, the rest I ordered from harbor freight, amazon, and ebay. I spent less than $150. Worth the investment to me, I'll have this gear forever.
Fun to watch with some nice tips, thanks for sharing
Yeah it involves cutting up and soldering wires. You could pay someone to do it but this can turn into a 10+hr rabbit hole so I don't know what the labor bill would look like. It all depends on how far you want to go. You don't have to kill your dreams before even starting the project.
