Default Dallas Speedcal

Well guys I got my car back from the shop with the 3.73 gear install and i love it! by far the best mod you can do in my book, and today i got my dallas speedcal in the mail, i look over the instructions and their website at the colored install pics, the scotch lock i got and the 1 on their install pics is different, this shouldnt matter should it? im really just wondering if there are any potention speed bumps in the way from a clean and quick install, i read a old post that someone said you can get to the VSS from inside without jacking it up if you have long skinny arms, anyone second this? im just trying to gather info up before we try this install. thanks guys

Eh, I just jacked up the driver side of the car and went from there... It is very simple to do.. I spent all of probably 10 mins on it... That was taking my time as well..

well i got the car in the air and under it, i unhooked the VSS on the tranny but i really do not understand what to hook to the speedcal plugs, can anyone help me here with this? also how do you hook the blue and green wires up, do you disasemble the factory plug or just push them into the plug? the pictures arent very helpful with these instructions, anyone?

Hell, it's been awhile since i did it... If I remember correctly, and by what the instructions say, you place the vss connector shell onto the speedcal blue and green wires.. keying is not critical..

You did take the small red contact lock out of the connector shell right?
