What seats are you using?Put a couple of false floors for the BMW seats that are going in this car.
Interesting. I have that harness ready for install when I get the car back from paint.Looks like you are using Pete's wiring harness. A suggestions when you get things up and running, check the currents on all the fuse circuits. Some of the fuse values are light years away from proper fuse values. Otherwise the fabrication work is looking really nice.

Interesting. I have often looked at those and wondered how they'd fit. One more reason to keep watching the progress of this build!I found a set of E30 seats in need of full restoration in Oregon and shipped them to Joel via Greyhound busfreighter.
What else is in the circuit path other than just the wires? Connectors? Switches? Internal circuit boards? Best practices are to fuse at a current about 2X of max current seen in the circuit. Some argue that down (1.5X) a bit, some argue it up (4X).If its all about melting the fuse before the wire, why mess around with calculating load? If the load is 5 amps and the wire is rated at 15, what's wrong with a 10 amp fuse?

Fuses are meant to protect the system, not the device, circuit boards and other amp sensitive equipment should have inline fuse protection. Otherwise, you appear to be covering shoddy wiring practice.

Seems to me the fuse police need to start a thread somewhere else!!!!!!!!!
Relocated upper CA attachment point for better camber curve during roll and longer shock?Take a look at this picture boys and girls and think about it.View attachment 21485
