Sims for F45
Sorry I know this subject has been clubbed to death, But I am trying to find any tech threads W/pics on how the sims are installed while replacing the F45's with 04 Zo6 shocks.
I did a search but with no luck.
Thnx

leave your position sensors installed and put the sensor resistors in the 2-wire shock connector. Some say to use 15 ohm 25 watt resistors.
You can also purchase these from lAPD, Ekler's and other vendors.
You can also have the F45 option removed with the TechII tool.
Cheers,
John

98 coupe, what dealership?
Another question comes to mind, after the option is deleted from the BCM, are the shocks still functional for driving,meaning can I drive the vehicle normally after the reprogram until the new shocks are installed.
thnx
And thanx for the offer AMERICAN HP

Thanx for the info, the Performance shop I go to can perform this task with the tech II.
My question is , what step should I take ,
Install the new shocks , then go have it deleted.(will the vehicle dive normally until the BCM code is removed)
Or have it deleted then install the new shocks
Reason I ask is if the shocks are disconnected before the BCM change am I to understand the vehicle will not go over 80mph, and codes will be flying all over, I have to drive maybe 20 miles on the freeway to get to my tuners location.
thnx
