it was easy kinda disconnect the wire from the latch in front of the car,feed it back out of the front of the car. right where the hood support is that holds the hood there is kinda a hole there. drill or force the hole bigger and then remove the wheel well black plastic stuff. then the tricky part! feed the line down inside the wheel well and then just bolt the wheel well back up and feed the line moreless the same way it went. i can send you a picture if you want. i didn't remove the wheel or the whole well so thats why it was kinda a pain.

I'd take it off. Don't make it hard on yourself.
