Default 04 Z06 Shocks HELP

I bought 04 Z06 schocks while back an now time to put them on.
Question is i see on my factory shocks i have the plug that plugs into the shock for the ride control.
I see on the Z06 shocks they dont have that plug.
How do i install them without plugging them in?
Will it throw codes?
Do i reset my computer?
Any info will help.
Thanks

What year is your Vette?

1999-2003 have the F45 adjustable suspension and you can get simulators or you have to take it to a Tuner who has a Tech II and he can turn it off.

If you have the F55 2004 Up you can only have it turned off with a TECH II either from a tuner who has one or have it done at GM Ouchhh! - they do not make simulators for the F55 -

YES! It will throw codes if you do not have it turned off or the simulators installed!

There is a thread here where you can make your own simulators too! Just do a search on F45 Simulators!
