Raise rear and unplug the cags connector and plug in the eliminator-2 minutes.

Not quite the way I did it...

Raise rear... Have a beer

Unplug the connector.. come one out and have another beer while everyone thinks you're doing some major work to your car

Crawl back under it, plug in the eliminator.. and take a nap. Make sure you have a comfortable crawler or throw rug.

Still only take two minutes to do the job, but looks sooo much better to the neighbors.

careful where you leave it... I left mine zip-tied 3-4 inches from the exhaust and melted it. Now it's higher and closer to the trans. Oops. If I had beer in me I may have been thinking more clearly.

There is a resistor inside the end of the connector. When I zip tied mine I put a little too much pressure on the wires to the connector and the solder joint to the resistor came apart. It made my check engine light come on all the time. I had to take it apart and resoldered the connections.
