A-Pillar Guage Pod Install in the Lincoln LS

I finally installed my A-Pillar and gauges last weekend.

I installed AutoMete

r C2 Fuel Pressure and Air/Ratio gauges - can't have my NOS Pressure gauge or I do not pass tech inspection for my ESP class.

Here's some pics:

I tapped the fuel line between the valve and the fuel rail - nothing special.

I tapped the heated O2 sensor signal off pin28 of the middle PCM connector - pic below:

I then ran the wires from the pressure sensor and PCM tap through the PCM rubber seal in the firewall and the behind the dash (through a conduit) to the a-pillar.

I tapped the ground and dash lights off my white gauge face leads, tapped a 12v switched source from a lead in the steering column.

It was difficult getting the PCM out - pull the glove box out to get the rear bracing off - pull of the AC filter and ducting to get at the PCM connector.
