defeated by cags by-pass

Just "installed" my CAGS defeat. Tried to force fit it. No go! What gives? Is there different ones for 6-speed transmissions?

Nope, their all the same. You're trying to force it into the wrong harness...

I'm not busting you up, I did the same thing and discovered that the correct harness it up higher on the same side. You're probably trying to connect it to the sending unit harness in the fill hole..

Get under the car and look past the sending unit about 6 inches, it's there....Trust me...

Thanks, I'll try again. You say that there are two harnesses on the drivers side of the transmission? And that the one I'm looking for is 6 inches above where I'm tryin to go?

If you have the CAGS defeat by-pass, just keep pulling and plugging in till you find the right one

The one that you see initially, the wire that attaches to the fill hole sensor, seems to be the obvious choice and the CAGS bypass "almost" fits but not quite. Leave this one connected and look directly above it about 6 inches higher, it's nearer the top of the transmission...

Once I saw the correct harness it took me less than 1 minute to unplug and fully install the CAGS bypass.

Should be a ten second install once it's up in the air. Do not force it! If it doesn't fit, you're at the wrong place. Good luck, it's a very worthwhile mod.
