Question #1, if my car does not have the center console but has all of the wires already in the car does that mean they are ready to go? For example, is the wire that I would connect to the volt gage already connected in the engine bay or is this something I will need to do?
Question#2, when removing the rear engine lid do I need to just remove the two bolts that hold the lid in place or do I also need to detach the steel rods which help with the lifting of the lid? And, do I need to mark the area to ensure I put it back in the same spot? Thanks, Bryan |

Hi Bryan. 1. The wires are tucked under the center carpet. However, you will need the seperate center console wire harness to attach them to the gauges.
2. What I do is, where the bottom lip/bracket is set on the engine wall, use some tape to mark it's possition at the leading edge so realignment will be easy. You just need to remove the 2 bolts. Might want to run some masking tape along the side panels so you don't scratch your paint. You reinstall the lid in the up possition for the indexed taped alignment. |
