Silly noob question!
OK. So I ordered as 2012 Cyber Grey GS and it should get here in about 2 weeks! I ordered some Lloyd's mats, and a M2W kit already. Want to do the CAGS, but cannot find a link to buy one! Anyone have a link? Also, is it a plug it in and leave it type of thing, or just a computer code that blocks it if that makes any sense! Thanks!

I bought one from an eBay vendor. On our Corvette's we can use the unit that replaces a fuse in the fuse box under the hood. Much simpler than installing the unit on the transmission under the car. You can actually make your own from a fuse as detailed in some prior postin

Or do the simpler/cheaper CAGS resistor fuse mod: http://www.xse.com/leres/z06/cags.html.
Or just do the simplest/cheapest thing and keep the revs up.

Some that have used the blown fuse method of disabling the CAGS report throwing a code after some use. The CAGS defeat that plugs into the wiring harness(not the transmission) at the transmission uses a resistor, and also comes with a cover that keeps dirt getting into the transmission's electrical fitting once the harness is unplugged.
I have had the resistor type CAGS defeat in my Z06 for almost 4 years with zero problems. For $20, it's a no brainier, as it allows you to shift your transmission into the gear you wish to drive in without the computer interfering with that process.
