[QUOTE="smurfslayer, post: 1858177, member: 21926"] +1 on the VSS install; I got the kit 2nd hand from another FRF. If it was used, it had to be the most gentle install ever because it came with all the zip ties, and looked uninstalled. Either way, I bought this like a year back, maybe more. Given the rash of thefts and having my buddy’s car broken into --right beside-- our Lincoln, time to harden the target a bit. I did not get the LED, but it’s an easy add on. I got instructions with the kit on using the unit and what not, but not actually installing it. owner.ford.com to the rescue. Validated the part, downloaded the PDF and it was way easier than I thought, a single pint job. 2 pints if you have a celebrator pint after the install. 5 or 6 if you invite neighbors & friends to the garage to join the celebration. Anyway, I didn’t fully understand the OBD harness instruction at first. I looked at the doc, took the OBD port loose and am like “WTF, this won’t fit”. Right genius, it won’t fit into the OBD port, it interrupts the connection on the rear of the OBD port. DOH. I spent maybe 5 minutes here second guessing myself and then realizing - oh, yeah, that rear connection is a dead ringer for the harness on the VSS... I sprung for the bajamod hard mount. Yeah, it’s pricey for what you get, but, it’s solid, mounts to hard mount points and is out of the way. They provide detailed instructions and were easy to follow. [ATTACH type="full"]384833[/ATTACH] Mount the VSS unit to the bajamod bracket, all hardware included. 1x 10mm socket, 1x 8mm, a driver a couple extensions, a phillips head screw driver, a pair of pliers and a pint mug was all it took. IDK if these will help anyone but here goes [ATTACH type="full"]384835[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]384836[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
