Installing LM1

Hi guys, Right now I am installing my LM1 wideband 02 sensor. How do I run it into the engine compartment, I dont want to break anything because I have before, so what do I need to remove from behind the glove box to run the sensor into the downpipe? Or do I have to go from the opening in the driver side? thanks for any help.

Since mine is borrowed.. until I get the one I bought in.... I ran mine over the a/c fan motor...between the pass fender and body....by bottom of windshield... and into the car just below the right side of the glove box..... door doesn't even pinch it... then it goes above the ECM.... and under the pass front floormat.... up beside the console.... It definately isn't a permanent install... but works great for tuning.... and I could remove/reinstall in about 2 min.... it is hardly noticeable for the passenger getting in besides the plug in the cigarette lighter....

If you have a bucket seat car, there is a grommit in the trans tunnel on the drivers side that is pretty big. I will post pics up soon of my installation using this spot.

Keep all sensor wires including power away from sources of interference, including coil pack and ignition wires! If you have an msd box your readings will be a mess.
