Dont have one but you dont need it. Just unplug the vac line and cap it off. The computer will automatically delete the EGR and it wont throw a CEL.

The computer does delete/bypass the EGR function as soon as an EGR failure code is logged automatically. That is how the FMEM logic works when EGR failure codes are registered. Code 33 (EGR detected not opening) will not cause the CEL to be triggered. Codes 31, 34 and 35 will trigger the CEL but the the EGR function will still be deleted.
