    I installed my Ultra Gauge a few weeks ago and have it ran through the panel below the steering column coming out just above the parking brake pull. So, here's where my awesomeness comes into play. I had the bright idea to see if my cig lighter actually worked in the port...and I blew a fuze that runs my lighter ports, radio, and clock (which I'm not really certain which fuze I blew so if anyone has an idea let me know.) Now here's the kicker, evidently when I was installing my Ultra Gauge I loosened the cable that runs to my hood latch. So, now I wasn't able to get the hood popped so I proceed to take the panel off again and try to troubleshoot...then the cable pops off the latch and I can't get it back on...

    Latch probably has two screws holding it up. Take screws out,drop latch,put cable into the latch and screw it back up. Those fuses should be near left knee drivers side. On the back of little pop out fuse cover should tell you in diagram what each fuse energizes.
