    Both lol, my small hands pulled the boot out manually, but fishing a wire through with the meso and attached and some soapy water made the lass through stupid simple.

    All this info is good field feedback for what the next kits will need to be tweaked. I’m going to include a bright green super large zip tie to help with installation. And so you can’t lose it :rofl:

    Ok so to recap to make sure im doing this right.

    Both pods are installed.

    There is a wire that fixes to the driver light that feeds into the passenger side and an identical shorter wire that comes from the passenger light into the cab.

    I still have a large t harness and a y split connector not installed yet, does this sound right?

    Sorry im dumb at this, i appreciate the help alot!

    Sounds about right. You don't need to remove the bolts for the lower dash. Not quite sure why that was in there. I used a fishtape to get the cable up to the pillar, but a stiff wire would work fine.

    On another note, @MESO, you mentioned the possibility of filter covers. Still thinking of doing those?

    I feel for you bro. Little set back. However you know how it’s goes, just takes some time now. Do what I did when I got frustrated, stepped away, kiss your lady and go back and finish it.

    If that isn’t some good advise idk what is.
    Or if you don’t have a lady, kiss your dog.... if you don’t have a dog, fuck it, go make out with a mirror. You’re beautiful

    Kings, 275/70/17, a few custom items, lots of Meso mods.
    Just a quick visual. Sorry only dash pic I have. Yellow is the long wire and goes behind the dash and up the A-pillar. Red is short and goes to same spot. They plug into the splitter.
