installed myself, i've done many installs but basicly its a 2 minute job...

Gain access to the ignition switch, remove the harness plug the new harness in between the switch and old harness, plug the turbo timer into that and tap the purple wire to the handbrake and thats it.... if you don't care about the auto shutoff when the handbrake is dropped then just ground the purple wire.... Very easy install.

Please don't use the above statement as a guide it was a brief summary only

Yes, I can't get the lower portion of the steering column off without removing the lower dash. It's just 2 screws (or 4 screws if you disconnect the hood release), acouple of clips on the switches, and 1 10mm bolt so it's not too bad.
