I am going to be swapping a new motor into my 01 Protege this weekend, and just had a question.

Is it wiser/easier to pull the wiring harness through the firewall and leave it attached to the motor to detach with the motor out of the bay, or is it easier to unplug the harness from the engine while it is in the bay first and flip it over onto the windshield or the fender?

I know on some cars have a preference on which way to do this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
