XEDE installation instructions v. 1.2 now online

Hi guys,
We just put up a new version of the EVO XEDE installation instructions. Tried to elaborate on a couple steps to make it clearer. If anyone else has any suggestions on what i can do make it harder to misinterpret, let me know.
Cheers,
shiv

Towed to the shop? What did you do that you couldn't undo? it's supposed to be a simple half hour install from what I read.

I did not mix any of the wires, First the ****ty eye glass screw drive I was using broke off inside the harness, next I removed the wrong wire, then I removed the piece from the harness, next I put the right wire back. After all was said and done the xede was getting a flashing red as well as the car would not start and it had to be because of a wire was lose, also the car WOULD start the 1st time I plugged everything back so I know it was something to do with the wires. I dono if my car is different but to get the wires out was a total pain in the ***. Anyway I am not good at this stuff so I said screw it and got it towed to a shop that knows what they are doing and drove a different car to work. No biggie, but before you install the xede make SURE you know what to do, call Shiv and let him talk to you about fishing out the wire with a paper clip because that did not work for me. I am not doing any more car work I will pay a shop to do it all.
