Request: RE Octane SSK Install

I did a search and came up with nothing.

Given that Rogue does not have install instructions posted on their website I am curious if anyone who has an SSK installed took pictures during the process.

I am considering ordering one of these but I would like to find out the difficulty of the install prior to doing so.

Thanks.

OK, so I removed both bootys. The Rogue instructions say to then disconnect the shifter from the shift link. Looking down from the top, I see no possible way to disconnect it due to many other things in the way. I am also doing this is the dark. I will look at it more tomorrow or Sunday

You need to do the install from under the car, prefereably on a lift, but can be done easily with ramps or jackstands (please be careful with either!)

Once you are under there, its pretty straightforward, although those clips can be a PITA.

You cant do it yourself because you cant jack up your car or drive it up some ramps? thats lame. You can get a jack at autozone for 30 bucks. Ramps are about the same price

Moocow, try searching for info here first. Not that you mind doing what you did , but you would've seen that dropping the exhaust or similiar is required for the rogue ssk.
