They're inside the intake manifold.
I think you should be able to see those wire in the previous pages.

Great work as always Domi!
Did you have your car on the road this year? Looks like you did a lot of upgrades this year.
Are you using a midlock spring compressor? Looks like the same one that I have. Was not sure if I could use it on the front suspension. But by the looks of your pictures I can! Planning on taking my front suspension apart this winter.
What brand of front springs are you using?
Good luck with your repairs.

Rubber looks fine, I hesitate to change them to poly, scared of noise?
What do you think ?

I'd keep the oem rubber for the inner bush if it's in good condition personally.
