Thumbs down PMS install question

Ok, this is for anyone who has installed an Anderson Ford PMS, I need some advice. This is related to the physical install. Is there a trick to getting the harness that plugs into the factory computer to fit in the limited space behind the kick panel?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Jim

it took me like an hour or so to get mine back in the kick panel, I put the computer in as high as it could go and then the wires will curve behind the computer, putting the connectors behind one another.

Did you have to release the computer from its factory bracket, and how did you mount the box under the passengers seat?

I removed the bracket completely, and if you want it under the pass side seat i recommend removing the seat to make it easier

It's not quite the PMS, but when I had to install my TwEECer I also found that it was much easier to remove the bracket. I tried to get it installed with the bracket in place but it wasn't happening. Hell, it was a tight fit even without the bracket!
