how do you pull the harness through the grommet? the harness has the 2 huge connections that connect to the ecu and im afraid i wont be able to get them through the grommet without stratching the piss out of it. any ideas? i have an 03 standard btw.

All you have to do is disconnect the connectors from the ECU.Then take a razor blade and make a small cut on one of the sides to allow some play in the gromet then stick them through go to the other side hook up the ECU and zip tie it up there.
i understand but how do u get the 2" thick connectors that are on the wiring harness through the little holes?

When you cut the slit into the rubber grommet, it will stretch a good bit to allow you to wiggle the connectors through, just have to get one through at a time. That or pop the grommet out of the hole so it's a little easier to work with, then replace when finished.
it is finished
looks better and im happy. thanks guys.

It looks like there is heat sinks on the ECU, kinda like a car stereo amp. Does the ECU get hot?
Yea thats what i though too

that's what i tried tellin skunk, but he believes otherwise.

Where are you relocating it to? the cabin? I want to move mine aswell as my strut bar gets in the way of it. Where are you mounting it? Sorry for jacking the thread just thought id ask
This thread will give you all the information you need on re-locating the ECU (PCM).
