    Trying to remove the induction plenum on my 2015 TRD Offroad. I have all the fasteners removed and the front willIMG_0805.jpg lift off the intake manifold but the rear seems to be held up by the stiff wiring harness that's very close to the rear stud in the intake manifold (one stud in front and one in rear to holding plenum to intake manifold). The problem that I'm having is I can't seem to move the wiring harness away from the plenum enough to lift it off of that stud. I snipped one wiring harness attachment clip but it seems like there's another in behind there... or something. Don't want to stretch the wire harnees too much. Any help in direction here would be greatly apprciated.

    Thanks, Homespun

    Looking closer I saw that the two large hoses are attached to the intake plenum by a 10mm bolt holding their bracket in place. A 10mm deepset 12-point socket and a welders mirror were necessary to locate and remove that pesky bolt.
