Steering Lock: cut one wire. /switch optional

Dwight Frye · 06-18-2012, 06:03 PM

To the pros for the harness, it only requires a tiny screwdriver blade to press down the lock tab on the factory connector at lock, and a set of diagonal cutters or scissors to trim the extra plastic on the zip ties after you tidy up the harness under your dash. And a small flashlight or trouble light to help see what you are doing. Install is very fast. Removing it would be equally a breeze, and no worries about what might be going on in the ECU due to the fuse being pulled.
As for the $50 being in the con column, it was worth that much to me for the intellectual property of those that figured it out, designed the harness, sourced the raw materials, tested, packed, shipped, dealt with PayPal and everything else involved. Plus the time save not ******* around under the hood pulling the fusebox out and reinstalling it. And my peace of mind is worth a few bucks too.
