my bad...just checked the usps tracking number and it says its processed thru the houston facility, houston being as close as it is, can i expect it the end of this week? maybe in time for a weekend install?

Yes, I lined up where I wanted the display to be, used a sharpie to a make a dot where the cable would have to run through (slightly to the right/under the left side of the display) and drilled a hole large enough for the cable/end connector to fit. I was able to take the entire black cup holder out by pinching/yanking, so I did this on my bench. I then used a little velcro to hold the unit down and some 'goop' glue behind it with tape covering the whole thing until dry. Then, I just ran the cable under the center console to the driver's foot well and popped the entire cup holder with display back down and wala!

So heres where I mounted mine...
Super simple install. All the wiring is run along the firewall behind all the venting in the center then up behind the glove box. The main control unit is mounted behind the glove box on the metal support near the front. Super simple to learn how many time to press the mode button to get where you wanna go so being able to see the unit is unnecessary IMO. Looks super clean with out it in the main cabin too.
+REP for Pan!!! Awesome product, would HIGHLY recommend for anyone wanting that little something extra for the Fit, or just about any car with an electronic throttle.

Just put mine back in the car. Took it out for a bit. Have had it on Ec3 all day. Feels amazing. Nice and smooth take offs. Gas milage for today was 42.3 avg. I'm falling in love all over again

3 questions for TWPanson and any ETC owners.
1. My Fit has to have a OBDII state inspection soon. Would it be okay to disconnect the OBDII connector for the ETC and leave it disconnected until the inspection?
2. Would leaving the OBDII connector unplugged do anything else aside from not power the ETC? By anything else I mean any Diagnostic Trouble Codes or Check Engine Light illumination.
3. Has anyone wired the reverse cancel wire for their ETC yet?

Hi,
Tks for the question.
1. It is okay to disconnect OBD. Acceleration will go back to stock mode. This is part of ETC's safety bypass system.
2. Leaving OBD unplugged won't cause any CEL or code in your ECU.
Sincerely,
Panson

for questions 1 and 2: In nature it shouldnt cause any issue, it will not receive any power to the control module and thus act as a blank gateway if you will through the wireharness and act as it did when stock

In regards to 3, I was wondering where does the stray blue wire go to. I picked up one of TWP's ETC's second hand from a buddy who who sold their Fit and was strapped for cash. I'm not sure if it was trimmed down some or came that way for the M/T GD3 (I have an A/T GD3) but there isn't any mention of where the blue wire runs to for the reverse cancel that I know of.

I have never unhooked mine for state inspection or hooked up the reverse wire... It scared the hell out of my wife when she backed the Fit out of the barn one morning when I told her she could take it to work. I was driving it all of the time in the SP7 setting before I upgraded the S/C to 10PSI.
