Plug and play Module 8

I took the Module 8 out of my red Mark when I parted it out. I also took the air ride module, harness, and plugs.

I want to use the module in my black Mark in the winter, and in the white Mark in the summer (the green Mark already has one).

Since I hate connecting the wires in the car (it's a pain to get to) I rigged up a harness to just plug in.:)

I cut the male plug out of a spare air ride module, de-soldered the pins from the circuit board, and soldered the wires from the harness to the pins. I used shrink tubing and sealed it all up with hot glue when I was done.

It's not pretty, I left the wires separate, as I'm not sure how much room I'll have to work with in the car.

I'll try it out later this week, here's some photos:

Cool Bill! A lot of work but definitally worth the effort with two different cars to use it on.
 
I plugged it in today, it works great!:)

Here's a couple photos, it's not every day you see a lowered Mark VIII with snowflake wheels and snow tires.:D

I'll mostly be using the raised 4X4 look in the winter though.:)
