Blapensee High Idle kit installed

Took a few minutes to go out and see just how difficult this project was going to be. I know a number of you said it was a piece of cake or a walk in the park. But to get me under the dash is truly like stuffing 25 pounds of potatoes into a 5 pound bag.

I spend more time procrastination than the installation took to do. Of course Blapensee had put together the perfect wiring harness anyone could ever ask for. Nice and labeled as to what wire went where, included these nifty little bullet designed wire taps. It really was a piece of cake thanks to Blapensee.

Here are a couple of photos of the end product. Please note that the **** on the idle control was not sent with the kit, it was a **** that I had pulled off of an old CB Radio to match the ***** on my current CB Radio. But, yes the Carbon Fiber mounting plate was provided with the kit.







And it works perfectly. As an added benefit of where it is mounted I can easily reach down and adjust the RMPs that I want at that time.

Blapensee, I can't thank you enough. You one great asset to this forum!!!

That looks great y'all. Does it work the same for a 2015? I never got around to it on my last truck but if I order one from blap it would be great to have.

Any interest on doing more?

That would be awesome! I bought a pot and know at Radio Shack but have just haven't attempted it yet due to the dang cold weather. I was going to put mine near the 12 volt plug, but that's probably not that smart. Just haven't taken it out to see yet. But yes, I would like either the plate, or the entire setup.
