With a razor knife, cut the other end of the blue plastic on the female blue butt connectors that
overhangs so that the metal part is flush with the end of the connector. This will give more contact area
for the gauges to grab.
Push the male bullet connectors on the wire extensions into the enlarged holes on the gauge pod so that
they are tight.
Tape the wires for each individual gauge together to help prevent them from pulling out.
Mark on the tape, which gauge each wire, goes to. The name of the gauge is written on the back of the
pod near each of the connectors.
Position the housing upside down and as far to the left as possible. More of the harness may have to be
pulled through the firewall to make sure the harness plugs reach the connections on the pod. You can
trim the corner nearest the steering shaft pillow block so that the housing is sitting over the bearing bolt
and closer to the left if the harness is too tight.
Use the pod as a template to mark and drill the mounting holes in the aluminum using a ⅛" drill bit.
Mount using the screws provided in the kit. Use flat nuts on the back of each screw. A cool way to
mount the pod is with the screws coming from the engine bay side and the flat nuts holding the pod.
This way you cannot see screw ends when looking into the engine bay and only see the chromed screw
heads.
The dash harness gauge pod connectors can then be pushed into the pod connectors. These are tight, so
click them into the white housing before drilling.
