Been itching to hit the road but I figured now's the perfect time to tackle the DIY big air kit I've been putting off.

So I got the left side mostly cleaned up, got rid of a lot of the stock airbox clutter. Still got a couple of hoses to make and need those wire harnesses properly.

Hoping I can get some advice from anyone who's done BAK before especially on the left side. Tips on routing new hoses, securing wire harnesses so they don't vibrate loose, just general tips for a DIY install?
 
I know the feeling, great job!! I think I saw an article or just a random post online about a a help on doing BAK or VBAK, you can try to just generally search BAK / VBAK help on google and just browse through it, Im sure you'll find it.
 
Just finished mine a few weeks back. I used heat resistant silicone for the hose and routed them tight along the frame with P clamps. Then used zip ties with adhesive backed mounts for the harnesses work well, I also wrapped some areas in wire loom to prevent rub

Trying to figure out the cleanest way to route everything. Did the silicone hose hold up well near the engine heat? And for the wire loom, did you go with split or solid type? Just want to make sure I don't miss anything before I start. Thanks for sharing!
