I'll try to get you details on the OEM bracket, but it might not be for a couple of days.
On a related note, I'd like to stop by and pick up a MAP hose on my way home from work. Does anyone know what the I.D. for the hose is? Also, I'm assuming I'll need at least 5-6 feet of hose to make it into the car and under the steering wheel (for a '99)? Anyone know how much I'll actually need? Does the hose material matter? Any vacuum hose will do?
Thanks

Thanks.
As for mounting, maybe some thin sheet metal with 4 holes for the MS, and two tabbed holes to join up with the OEM bracket? That might not be too hard... Surely I'm not the first trying to put an MS in a 99 right?

Right. I have no idea what other people are doing, it would be interesting to get some feedback.

I've seen threads about setting up tuner studio that mention selecting firmware etc. Do those threads apply to your ECR Rev? In otherwords, are there any other steps, besides the ones you outlined in your instructions, to get TunerStudio up an running for someone who has just downloaded the software and has not touched any other settings?

I sent you a PM earlier, Dimitris.
For the rest of you who have installed it in a NB, how is fitment under the dash? Should I request an extension for the harness to fit behind the glovebox or is there room under the driver's side dash?

I'll find out on Saturday... and let you know. I *think* that it will be possible to mount it in the vicinity of the OEM ECU, but have yet to try it. It will require some sort of custom mounting system for sure. I need to confirm that there is enough room as the MS box is maybe twice as thick as the oem unit?

On my 2002, there is a Mazda (OEM) keyless control module behind the glovebox. YMMV.
