Just had the cutouts installed this morning. I ran the wiring already and just had to drop it down, then run to the cutouts. I was concerned that the wires may come to close to the mids, but the exhaust installer from Lou's custom exhaust in peabody did an amazing job. The mounting plates I got from DMH were not perfectly welded, luckily my guy finished it up and no leaks. Dave from DMH sent a special high heat RTV silicone that seemed to do the trick, but I'm still waiting on my new gaskets from Modern Muscle.

I will post pix and video soon. May not grt the vid today, we'll see. The wire ran to the drivers side was snaked through the frame and popped out lined up with the drivers cutout. I'll be sure to post the install pix today.

My .02 on the mod, WOW!!!!!, amazing difference and I'm loving this mod. Not sure how often I'll open them, but damn.....when I do....be afraid.... Did it to a SS and his mouth was open....had me rolling...

I apologize, because i didn't take many pictures of install. I didn't think it was necessary, because there are already plenty of threads on this mod. I just did it a little differently. Most tap into the cig lighter, i just replaced it with the cutout switch, which i then ran the line under lower dash panel, beneath the steering wheel. Zipped it to the only rubber grommet i could find leading out into the engine bay, then bunched the lines up and zipped it. I tucked it up around the wiper blade motor untill the cutouts could be welded on.
here's the few pics of have of the interior and grommet area to run the line out from.
cig lighter assembly removed:

cutout switch:

under the drivers dash, grommet opening: not necessary to remove lower dash panel to get to it.

engine bay opening:

Lou's Custom Exhaust:
mounting plate received wasn't fully welded and one the adapter was slanted, which means would cause a bad seal and leak.
mounting plates:


Lou's fixed both issues and did an awesome job running the two wires to the cutouts. gotta admit, better than i expected and something i didn't think about.
drivers side:


pax side:
