Always good to have a few of those on hand for sure.

A backup / second pump in reserve is also a great idea.

Having both of the above just means significantly less down time when it comes time to requiring swapping of them.

Finished hiding the wires to my new Livewire TS in the car and mounted it up in the top left of the windshield. Now just need some updated tunes and back on the road! My BDX was in worse shape. Kept dying on me if you messed with the cord. Made retuning pretty stressful. Even bought a new cord for it. Guess it just went haywire on me.

some wires are constructed better than others.  hence can cause or pickup interference.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Yeah, it started to become a pain in my butt so decided just better off upgrading. Like going from a Nokia phone to a smartphone with the Livewire LOL

It's sad that the BDX wasn't designed better. I specifically bought it over the X4 thinking I could have it on the dash like I do my Accessport in my ST. Didn't realize they port the damn data port on the top so there's no way to make it look "nice" while having this giant cable sticking out the top

Can you take a picture? I love where mine is mounted, but it sits directly in front of a vent.

What kinda of ST? Focus? I am going to pick one up in a couple of weeks and I am always interested to hear what people have to say.

Very cool, I sat in a FiST and my back didn't really fit well.  Short and wide problems....

Yeah, one thing to keep in mind is the seat too, you have the recaros and the standard seats. I bought mine with the standard (didn't know about the Recaros) and ended up swapping a seat of Recaros in. They hug real well, but aren't the best fit for everyone

I figured this would be the best spot to be out of my line of sight, but can monitor data during a pull without being too distracting

I was thinking up in the far left corner.  I will just have to figure out if my visors will still work.  I will also have to cut my sun shade, again.

This is as far up left as it can go without being in the way of the visor.

I did end up replacing the Low level fluid washer sensor for the fun since already having the parts on hand plus a new grommet through the wheel well liner early today.
I found installing the grommet first to be ideal followed by pushing the Low sensor in until it (clicks) into place.
Need to make sure the sensor itself is positioned correctly while the Float stays in the UP Position when the Reservoir is FuLL and DOWN when LOW..
I provide more info and Pics for anyone interested.  Z
