Edge install addendum

I got to work on the Edge this morning, took some pictures.

Tools

Size 10 mm wrench
Large Screwdriver
Diagonals
#10 Torx driver (need skinny shaft)
Gorilla Tape
Electrical Tape
Tie wraps both the small ones with edge and some larger ones

I found a dash pod for the edge Part Number 38305




The dashpod is a very nice item, I routed the cable through the end cap which I pried off with the large screwdriver.

I used some Gorilla Tape and a tie wrap to protect the cable where it passes through the metal under the end cap.


The Edge instructions for under the hood are just fine as is. I used the large screwdriver to push in on the latch and lever the back 456 injector connector which made it very easy to get out. My hands just would not fit and provide enough leverage.

I slit the rubber shown and put a loop through for the OBD connector cable. Made it very easy to pull through from the other side.


That timing connector took the longest. I had to find my Torx driver and forgot the shaft was loose in the handle. I used a pliers to turn the shaft.
Connector disconnected and ready for edge cable

And with the edge plugged in


I cut a little channel for the power wire in the fuze box using the diagonals.

Wrapped some of the cables together with electricians tape, and tie wrapped the loom at various spot to keep it away from wear points and restrain it.

I used some industrial strength velcro in place of the small pieces provided by edge.


Now I have a question? I did not install the temp probe yet, where is the best place to drill for the temp probe.
