sweet!, when you have some time or next time u run a blue run, please lmk I'll take one for sure!

martin82 · 04-07-2014, 02:41 PM

Just ordered one thank you for all these awesome parts!

I just received word that the wiring harness bracket in front of the gauge area needs to be trimmed to clear the gauge.

I over looked this, as I removed that bracket on my car several years ago. I didnt realize that it came that far over.

If anyone has a problem with trimming or removing this bracket, I will accept the kits back and issue a full refund.

For all future buyers, please note that trimming some extra material off a harness bracket is required! I will try and get good photos of this ASAP.

Well in that case... remove the bracket ENTIRELY and grind it at least 20 feet away from your car while the fuel line is open!!! Then re-install bracket!

I need to try and find this bracket in my garage so I can show pics of how to clearance it.

hahah, yea not using the grinder this time!

Look what arrived,

Installed the CJM fuel gauge adaptor. Quick and easy. There is one small issue, there is a bracket that needs to be modified or removed. Follow along with the pics to see what I mean.

This is the offending piece of bracket. You can cut or grind this tab off, or remove it.

I chose to remove it. But now the MAF sensor wire is sticking out like a sore thumb.

No problem, unplugged and rerouted. Nice and clean now.

All done,

Works,

Looks great I will do the same and just remove the bracket

phunk · 04-07-2014, 11:17 PM

GaleForce; I can't thank you enough for posting that. Really a life saver for me right now with how much I have going on this week. You saved me at least a hour. Thanks.

phunk · 04-07-2014, 11:19 PM

Glad I could be of help. I wouldn't even recommend cutting the bracket. It's easier, and cleaner to remove it. Great product. Thanks!

I removed that bracket when I rerouted the starter cable through the cowl. One of the first things I did. I couldn't stand that cable draped across the whole front of the engine. Just one more thing adding to the clutter which is already 4x worse than the DE... And the DE had the starter on passenger side so no mega cable sagging across.

It's been so long I totally forgot it exists until a member PMd me today!
