Well since I can't find any reason for my headlights to drawing power when off, I installed a toggle switch so the power can be cut off completely and reconnected without having to pop the hood.
Still need to mount the switch in the dash, ended up breaking one of the switch blanks on accident, so I am just going to discretely gorilla glue it in place until I can get another.
Also I finally fed the wires for power lock in the hatch through the inside of the hatch itself with a clothes hanger1991 Ford Festiva BP (Full Aspire/Rio Swap) (337k Miles) (Around 95k Engine)

We bolted up the transmission to the BP, timed it, and dropped it into the bay to take some measurements for cutting the firewall. I also took out near all of the insulation and heater hoses on the passenger side. I'm trying to get the heater core out. We also modified our E-brake to make it more fun. Took the little button catch pin out and put in a removable one so we can pull it and snap it back down for turning. I didn't take any pictures of how to do it but its really simple if you like playing around and pulling 180s.

Finally got a chance to push my turbo car into the garage after starting it up perfectly, then stalling it 30 seconds after a 20 degree cold start, and it wouldn't restart. Pulled the plugs, they were wet with fuel. Time to clean up the old spare set it took out at work tomarrow and hope it starts up.Im not driving a Festiva because I'm poor. I drive a Festiva because i want to!
