you cut wires then you add on more wire not much to it.

If you're good at soldering it's a piece of cake! It took me about an hour to install the test pipe and extend the o2 sensor wires. Just make sure not to mix up the two black wires.

Because the UR test pipe already comes with a built in mechanical o2 cel fix hence why they guarantee no CEL.

Just cut and solder some new wires on like stated above. Not too difficult, just takes an hour or so. I have the UR test pipe and still did throw a CEL. I have gotten the CEL fix since then w/ no problems. Good luck.

Exactly.

The best thing to do is get an acid brush (or even a small piece of sponge) soak the exposed ends of the wire in isopropyl alcohol then solder the two ends together while the alcohol lis still dripping off the wire. This will help draw the solder in (like flux) When you go to cut the black wires, I suggest cutting them about one inch apart, that way you cant mix them up, or label them with tape on each end of the cut a--a b--b ect. Get some heat shrink tubing and put it on (before you solder slide it up the wire) and you are all set.

There is also a no wire cutting how-to in the how-to forum but I didnt do that method.
