auto parts store, namely autozone

also that hayden/imperial controller is crap quality and barely does the job, get yourself a DCC controller and never worry about it, dont know why they went that way in the guide[:'(]

Why do you say that Hayden is "crap quality". Not doubting you but just wondering why you say this. Do you have personal experience with it? Also, do you have links for a DCC controller.

Im guessing you are referring to the Hayden parts? thats wierd cause I called Advanced, Autozone & Ford and they all said that they dont have carry them. Autozone and Advanced said they were dealer items and I called Ford and they said no, so Im lost and I cant find jack sh*t on google.

hmmm me too! I need to get this thing ordered ASAP! Plus, I forgot I needed to upgrade the alternator! jeeze, it just never ends lol. Anyway, did you stick the probe through the radiator? Thats going to hurt me horribly, sticking that thing right into a brand new 450 dollar fluidyne rad[:@] any other alternatives?

You just push the sensor in between two fins, it has no need for a extra locking mechanism either, it is a very small design and actually locks its self in with an extra nub at the end of the sensor.

Brian may have had to stop taking orders to get caught up on the controllers. It took between 6 and 7 weeks for me to get mine. Quality and how well it works are awesome, he sends you enough wire to do the complete install. Brian is also great when it comes to answering question too. I went with the FK35 controller from DCC.

If you want me to find out whats up with the web site I can
