Haha just kidding...but seriously..If you wanna do the mod look it up, or figure it out on your own people. Who first do it have to do it that way..everyone else is just coping them.

This might help: (found it using google)

it is fairly simple as long as you have all the required parts.

1. OHC
2. hanging bracket
3. temp sensor
4. headliner cut out template from the jeep that had it on.( I just shipped mine to a member)

If I were you in case if your head liner looks bad just redo the whole thing.
Pull the headliner, remove the wiring harness that is there run the new one down the the a pilar and just plug everything back up. there is a write up on gojeep. It is for the older OHC but same concept. If you need any help I will do the best I can. Here is a pic of mine installed.

Again after I reread it I saw that I sounded like a douche. And I didnt mean too, I too am learning as I go. Bad mouthing people in your post also makes people wanna leave the forum. By me saying 'i found it using google' was jsut letting you know that i dont know how good the source is..after I took time out of my day to look it up for you. And the 'her let me google that for you' was just a joke.. Lighten up, I didnt mean anything by it

But you should make a right up for it, since i couldnt find a really good one and them you could help out other people in your same position

I agree, i was in the same situation a few months ago, and here in Mexico, people at some forums are very selfish, so i put all the "bad words" i know for those m.....f...rs, and then i subscribed here, and a lot of people came for helping and i really appreciated that!... unfortunately i couldn´t help u with your OH console, ´cause i fixed mine a few days ago, but my cherokee is´94 and i know the wire harness is not the same, and i didn´t take pictures of the processand i had to figure out by myself, how the rig works....anyway, is good to know you resolved your problem!cheers from Mexico!!
