I got an igition box coming soon, and I am still kinda undecided where i want to install it, I don't really want to put it in the interior...

I was thinking more like under my air filter on the fender, where the stock airbox sat before.... anyone have one mounted there? Does it get wet?

I don't want to get it wet and damage it. Will i have to cut some wires and extend them if i installed it in this location? if so, which wires?

I'm not sure if it comes with instructions on how to install it, so I hope I can figure it out unless I find some online

I did the battery relocate so I stuck my 6AL where my battery was.

it comes with instructions, if not just go to msd website you can download the manul for any box

just try and keep it aWAY from water if its the 6al, sould be fine where you want to put it.

It's a 6AL, I am buying it off someone which he said it was rebuilt by MSD, so I don't know if it has instructions...I'll go try to find a copy online
