BOTH RACE AND MULTIFUNCTION STEERING WHEEL INSTRUCTIONC CONTINUED
Install the rectangular steering column beauty plate with the supplied black stainless M6 button head cap screws. On the right side of this beauty plate there is a hole for the included Christmas tree zip tie. This is the strain relief for the curly cord that is attached to the steering wheel.
Connect the four pin connector from the steering wheel curly cord to the OEM wire harness we disconnected in an earlier step for the OEM fixed paddles. The curly cord connects directly into this four-pin paddle connector. If you are installing a multifunction steering wheel, connect the second 4pin connector from the curly cord into the OEM wire connector we disconnected earlier in the instructions. One secured, route the wire harness neatly beneath the gauge cluster and re-mount the cluster with the OEM hardware. Once you have everything mounted and wires routed properly, use the included christmas tree zip tie and secure the curly cord to the beauty plate. This is a strain relief and will prevent the curly cord from getting disconnected from the factory harness. Trim the excess zip tie. It is important that the wire harness is secure and can’t move, but not so tight it pinches the wires inside the outer sheathing.
Next install, the EVP splined coupler to the steering shaft. With a 10 mm Allen socket, Use the supplied barrel nut to secure the spline adapter to the steering column. Install the EVP race steering wheel onto the spine adapter.
