  2. Here is how I installed my CTEK Comfort Indicator Panel. I decided to install it under the driver's side dash for convenience, aesthetics, and to prevent possible damage if I were to forget it was plugged in. There are two different lengths of this type of plug; one is 4.9', the other is 10.8'. I installed the 10.8' cord because I wanted more options of where I could install it. In this mod, I used the following: Small Flat Screwdriver T-20 Torx Driver 6mm, 8mm & 10mm Sockets w/ Ratchet 4 Zip-Ties Razor Blade Sharpie Marker Small Ruler I used my ruler to measure the backside of the Indicator Panel, then marked the demesions on the OBD2 panel under the dash on the driver's side. I then used a razor blade to cut the insulation and panel so the Indicator Panel would have a tight fit. I then used a small flat screwdriver to pop up the SS Door Sills. I then used a T-20 Torx driver to remove the plastic Door Sills. With the Door Sills removed, I pulled the carpet back just far enough to route the cable alongside existing wires from the OBD2 area, to the rats nest of wires located under the driver's seat. I then pushed the new cable through the hole in the battery tray. I then unbolted the positive battery cable removed the battery tray grommet to slide the cable through it. I had to remove the fuse in order to do that. I then reinstalled the battery cable through the grommet alongside the new cable. There is no need to cut the grommet as it will fit with a little patience. I made sure to leave just enough cable to mount the rings onto the battery. I then unbolted 3 different cable to route the new cable underneath to give it a professional look. I then zip-tied the excess under the dash while using zip-ties in various locations to secure it. I then bolted the rings onto the battery posts to make sure it was working properly before I put everything back together. I hope you enjoyed my DIY tutorial. Do not hesitate to PM if there are any questions. I am happy to help.

  3. I bought the roof rails for the pepper off another Canadian a while back and just got to install them today. It's uber easy and took about 30 minutes. The former owner gave me the screws to mount as well, but in reading the Porsche TSB; it said to always replace the screws so I got new ones from the dealer. They have a blue loc-tite type coating on them to lock them in place so I thought better safe than sorry. I started by cleaning the surface of the truck with a micro-fibre towel Each one of the holder thingies has lettering on it which corresponds to where they go (letters out) The positioning is as follows: vR-Front, Right mL-Center, Left hL-Rear, Left vL-Front Left mR-Center, Right hR-Rear, Right Put the back (rear) ones in first Then put the rail over the holders and secure with screws. 6.5 Ft. Lbs. torque, and tighten the rear one first Same for the other side and your done. Don't put any load on them for a while so the loc-tite stuff can cure Once tighten, use the plugs to fill the holes, they just push in. They go in this order: Long-rear, medium-middle, short-front. I just like the lines so much better with these on.....

  4. The wire you want is the one farther towards the center of the console, i.e., not the one nearer towards the edge. tmc Beautiful, beautiful post! Just finished the install on an '06 CTTS and it was as easy as pie. Thanks for the efforts behind the post! I LOVE RENNTECH.ORG!
