Its a pretty straight forward install, very easy.

I only ran into two problems.

1. I didn't have a big enough drill bit for the compression fitting going through the firewall, so I had to use a file which slowed me down about 45 minutes.

2. I got every thing hooked up and the damn thing didn't work. It turns out that the wiring directions were wrong. No big deal though, Angie at TR emailed me the correct instructions the next day. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Oh yeah, if your installing the switch in the ashtray go easy when drilling. Those things like to shatter. <img src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" border="0" alt="[jester]" /> Don't ask me how I know that though. <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

later,
Steve

Behind your comuter on the passagers side is a soft rubber plug that you can run the wires through. That is where I ran mine through.(if you are going to add a fan control switch this is good time to do it)

remove your master cycl lid, take a small piece of plastic wrap from the kitchen and double it up, place it over the hole and replce the cap. this should create a vacum strong enought o hold the brake fluid in the cycl.

place towels on any surface you dont want damaged as some brake fluids will eat up your paint..

btw, dont forget to remmove the plastic when done.
