Guess what I hate auto elecy work!!!!!!!!!! After losing the t piece for about 45 mins, (many words yelled and tools throwen.) Finished in engine bay then proceded to start on inside. How the hell do the plugs for the icc come undone. I have tried for ages and ages I pushed I poked and now I have thumbs that hurt like hell. I had the instructions on icc removal and install, but I just cant get plug no 1 to some out. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

You can feed any wires or hoses from the top down. If you feed from the right and guide the wire towards the back of the car, the wires will be come down behind the foglight switch.I suggest you use some semi rigid wire chaser to get the hoses or wires to the top of the dash. I have a special wire chaser, but heavy gauge wire can do the same job.Good luck Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/24849-how-hard-can-it-be/#findComment-372655 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 20/04/06 08:22 PM Share Posted 20/04/06 08:22 PM Taped to the wires going to the power socket is the light wires if you have a cig lighter I use these for the lights in the gauges and as has been said the mpower from the power socket wiring.Ian Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/24849-how-hard-can-it-be/#findComment-372733 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaine HgAg soldier Member 253 Member For: 21y 9m 9d Gender: Male Posted 21/04/06 11:00 AM Share Posted 21/04/06 11:00 AM how hard is it to get power from the cig lighter, can you access it by just taking the side panels off? I'm going to install mine tomorrow and I need a 12v source for the oil pressure gauge. should I be buying 'special' wire for the engine bay so it doesnt melt?
