Default For the wiring impaired

Has anybody ever used this:

to convert a stock harness to stand alone?

I purchased this one

I've been very pleased with it. The one youve listed looks like it might have more stuff like the OBDII connector.

Thanks for the feedback. Did yours come with much of an instruction manual?

The instructions are easy and straight forward. Have you seen the retro wiring diagram by Jhankinson in this post.
https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...=312119&page=4

The only difference is the kit I bought only has high and low fan speed. It kicks on one fan at 195 and the second at 205 or 210 something like that. You only need to figure out your year model and pinouts to convert to stand alone using the diagram and the kit. I also ran my a/c stand alone outside of the pcm and the wiring kit.

I am going to let him do my entire setup. With tunning and my conversion the $300 or so is a no brainer. Others seem to charge 3-4 times for the same service that many just do themselves.

4-8 week turn around but that is fine with me.
