Default ECU relocation

I've google and googled and I remember seeing a few miatas (2). Relocate their ecu. I plan on getting door bars and I want to run a shorter map line. Shouldn't I just be able to un tape the loom and move the ms under the dash and retape it back up without cuting any wires.

The fuel pump and a bunch of other **** run up the opposite side (Drivers side). It's the seat belt thing or the headrest speakers or something.

Yeah I just unpluged the seat belt/head rest speaker wires and wrapped them up. I got the MS2 sitting on my pass airbag self and I cut the air bag cover to fit around it. Ill post pics later in my build thread.
