Was wondering if anyone had any tips or advice on installing it.

It was pretty straight forward power to alternator the other wires it had going to it dissappeared when i loomed up the wiring. Make sure you get the mounting brackets for universal use. The car charges poorly on 700 idle but at 1200 rpm keeps everything pretty bright.
