Picked up my mint L33 off of Craigslist for $500... was a steal IMO.

Now converting it to fbody accessories... that's another story lol.

Before and after.

I like that bracket way better than any of the other ones that mount it on the passenger side. You can still use your auto tensioner and not have cluster over by the oil fill.

Will it interfere with anything over on that side like the ABS block? Looks like your not using power steering, but the power steering will still work with this bracket.

Couldn't tell yah. This is in a 1990 RX-7 so no ABS or PS. It is a very nice piece though.
