‘19 Clubman S with JCW tune & Dinan Elite

I picked up my Clubman S (with jcw exhaust & tune) on Friday, and only got to drive it home before leaving on vacation. I decided to pull the trigger and ordered the Dinan Elite tuner from ECS, so it should be delivered before I get back. :-). So Sunday morning, I will be installing it, along with my AFE dry flow air filter. Could somebody please point me to a video of the Dinan install on my car? I am super excited to get some time behind the wheel.

pics when I get back... black with silver roof.

thanks!

The written instructions Dinan provided for the Dinantronix was extremely easy to follow. I suspect the Elite should be no different. It was a 10 minute job.

10 minutes plus time for first aid. Blood sacrifice around that sensor, in my experience. And then searching for the little gray clip that fell out, which I never did find.

I have ten fingers, and none to spare.

Excellent. More opportunities for flesh wounds!!

It really is easy. Just be sure the car is fully asleep and the key fob is far away and all will go well.

Thanks for the tip! I will disconnect the battery too, since I am also going to install a circuit breaker to supply power to a subwoofer amplifier before I begin the fiberglass work for the sub.
