Now we get into the interesting stuff.........Things that "Spark" if they aren't assembled correctly.....LOL....Got all the factory computer harnesses modified by Speartech in Indiana....opened the box and got goosebumps.........With the excellent diagram and instructions, in about 15 minutes everything was plugged in.....Well almost.....





Gotta find a place for all this stuff...
