Remove the two self tapping screws which mount the glove box hinges and remove glove box. Remove the three self tapping screws which retain the liner and remove same.
Locate the factory Engine Control Unit (ECU). This is a silver box with four multiple wire electrical connectors, plugged in at one end.

Unplug all four unique factory connectors on the factory loom from the factory ECU, by depressing the connector lock tab and gently pulling on connector body, NOT wiring.

Plug all four factory connectors, carefully and in the same order as they are in the factory ECU into the Safari Dtronic loom adaptor.
Plug all four factory style connectors from the Safari Dtronic Loom Adaptor into the factory ECU, in the same order as the factory connectors.

Carefully install the Safari Dtronic Loom Adaptor in front of factory ECU as pictured.

Remove the adhesive protection backing sheet from one piece of the supplied Velcro strip and fasten the Velcro to the heater box above glove box latch.

Remove the adhesive backing sheet from the other piece of Velcro and fasten to the Safari Dtronic Computer. Place both Velcro strips together and press firmly, thus mounting the Safari Dtronic Computer.

Plug the small, non factory connector coming out of the Safari Dtronic Loom Adaptor, into the Safari Dtronic Computer.
Remove the right hand factory ECU cradle screw and install the Safari Dtronic Auxiliary Module earth strap as shown.
Plug the remaining small non factory connector from the Safari Dtronic Loom Adaptor into the Safari Dtronic Auxiliary Module.

Affix Velcro to the Safari Dtronic Auxiliary Module and Safari Dtronic Computer. Press both Velcro strips together and press firmly, thus mounting both Safari Dtronic components together.

Start engine. Ensure engine runs smoothly and without causing the check engine light on the dashboard to illuminate.

Re-fit the liner and glove box assembly.

CAUTION: Ensure that all wires are protected and well clear of all potentially damaging sharp objects.
Note: To remove Safari Dtronic and return the engine back to factory computer control, follow the reverse order of instructions above. The engine will not run with the Safari Dtronic plug removed.
