Default LC1 and AVCR install

I just wrapped it up. I needed the LC1 easilly removable, as I tune on the weekends for other people.

The LC1 comes out via a 6 pin connector I installed in the glovebox, and connects back up to a 6 pin connector that is attached to a wiring harness setup to easily install in any car.

I dont like stuff easily visible so I tucked everything in the glovebox, and mounted it all on velcro.

No holes drilled in the car, no permanent modifications were made to the car.

Everything is quickly reversible.

I need to reroute some of the wires to clean it up some, but for the most part I'm pretty happy with the install.

Let me know what you think.

Nice setup. Clean.

Tip: Protect that RPO sticker on the GB door. It is non-replaceable and lists all the options by RPO code that came with your car. Those cords and devices WILL, over time, destroy that sticker. I would recommend a small micro-fiber towel/rag, etc to protect it. Something soft. Anything hard will just rub right through it.

Nothing is touching the sticker or even close to it. It's a perspective illusion, but I will make an effort to protect it.

Thanks for the tip!

Fortunately for me, I was able to stop any further damage on mine after noticing the printing being being worn away from my routine glovebox content items.

I just took a close look at mine, and you can see where the factory owners manual wore away two numbers. > : (

Looks good. How'd you run the wire from the O2 sensor up to the glove box?
