Auto-Stop Eliminator -- Installation tips

I was installing this today, backed out of the garage so that I had good light to see. Problem was it is very hot out (90+degrees) so I wanted the ac to be running. This means instead of going into ACC mode as they tell you to, I left the engine running.

Getting the center console plate to lift up was a little more difficult than the video showed. You have to muscle it some.
The disconnection of the main molex plug was also a little bit more difficult.

The hardest part of all was installing the zip-tie to hold in place the Eliminator module. There is not a lot of room down there and if you have big hands, etc., it is hard to maneuver and to see. I screwed up one zip-tie (got it too tight before it was around the module) and when I cut it to remove, it fell down into the bilge o_O never to be seen again. heh

I finally got the module secured tight in place with the 2nd zip-tie. Re-assembly of the center console plate was a lot easier than removal.

After I was totally done, it dawned on me that working down under would have been significantly easier had I stood outside, leaning over the driver's seat rather than trying to reach down from sitting in the driver's seat.

Conclusion: This part is very well made. It works like a charm! I now have the ability to enable ISG or disable it and have it OFF all the time. Happy camper .....
