    Are we supposed to fish the connector thru this hole? I can't figure out how you guys did it....
    I imagine it's easier to just cut the wires and resolder....

    Do not do that! Lol it will go through. Flatten out the existing wire there with your fingers, and pull it through while holding those flappy tabs up, they will go through

    Well I just finished successfully. However due to the 98F, 100% humidity, and no wind, the install took 4.5 hours in the sun. I'm fucking wiped.

    Whoever suggested using dish soap for getting the harness through the boots was a godsend. The harness glided through. (Giggity)

    I have the moonroof/sunroof drain hose in the A-pillar. Man that T-harness was a massive bitch to squeeze in when attaching the panel again.

    I hope no wire rattle surfaces, but I did a good job securing along the way.

    Just finished installing and testing, all works just fiddling trying to get the a pillar back on flush since there are so many cables now.

    I disconnected this from the sheet metal and slid it lower down to allow me to have more space. DC3A3F77-EF94-41D3-BF2B-221BB59D2D27.jpg

    The good ol' long flat head and electrical taping the end to it worked the best for me. Just stick in the bottom of the boot and while pushing up, slightly twist/wiggle the flat head left and right.

    Around $100. $50 cheaper than the taco because it doesn’t need the extension/T harnesses
