Tip 1: Get as many Nissan relays and boxes as you can and run everything through those.
Tip 2: Tie-Wraps. Tie-wrap everything to everything else. When you need to put more wires into the same bundle, don't remove the tie-wraps, just add more.
Tip 3: Mount as much stuff as possible onto DIN-rails. (Jory tells me this stands for "Don'tIncorporateNomore", I'm not sure)
Tip 4: Use as many different types and colors of wiring as possible, for the true rat rod aesthetic.
Tip 5: Don't worry about water or corrosion, it's mostly a bunch of hype. The more exposed connections the better, as they're easy to put your meter on to troubleshoot your circuits.
Tip 6: Paint and polish is for prima-donnas. Real men like patina.
