I installed a much larger than stock Mishimoto J-line into Evonne the Turbodiesel. I had some trouble, initially, with how it fit, but I made some changes and now it looks like it was born to be installed in my car!
Sam Axe, actually no, I don't. It would be good to have something between the size of my Dremel-type rotary tool and the angle grinder. Something to consider adding to my tool kit.
I'd like to thank Mark for this video . I used this to install the same IC in one of my cars.
Will note that I had to cut off the bumper cover mounting tabs that attach to the underside of the crash bar as that section where the bolts would go gets cut out and the tabs need to be removed as they'd otherwise hit into the IC. ALSO, there's a clip-like, plastic piece (like two fingers) behind the upper part of the grill pieces that will also need neutering.
Nice work Mark. Don’t you have a die grinder?

Good to have that detail for people. It's been a while since I did those steps.
