Nice work... so you have to take the fender off on the driver's side now?

That really looks clean. Sets the polished Maggie off even more.

How hard was it to do and amount of time to do it?? Also what did you use to mount the coils, and such?? Another mod to add to the never ending list..

No just the wheel well cover. It takes less than a minute to do it. Drivers wheel needs to come off also.

I relocated my coils inside my fenders last year. When I went to get a dyno, they had a bad problem trying to connect to the small wire on a coil to pick up RPMs!
