      I got mine from a vendor on the LX forums so I would search there first and ask owners.

    Do you have to use the wireless dongle or is there a way to wire it directly? Unfortunately all the photos on most of the write up on the forums are no longer available. I was hoping to find a video showing how it was done. I know on the 05-06’s one could just use some pins on the clockspring? But I have a 2010 and apparently there aren’t any pins available? Please advise, I like the idea of hard wiring better than the module

    • @SerhansGarage
      @SerhansGarage  Рік тому

      You don't have to use wireless module, there was a wired version but it was more complicated to install. The wireless is more expensive but easier to install. Did you check out the website in the description, their site might have diagrams for hardwiring which may help.

    • @SerhansGarage
      @SerhansGarage  3 роки тому +2

      I dont think so but with a Tuner you might be able to make the shifts firmer so it will feel like gears change faster. If it's very firm shifts your neck will jerk everytime the car shifts...like a manual. This should also extend the life of transmission since there is less friction when changing gears

    • @bigred7063
      @bigred7063 2 роки тому +1

      Yes, you can either change out the solenoids, tune or build the transmission which will require upgrading the solenoids. Here is a quote from challengertalk forum "I did the AMG blue tops on my Mercedes in June '12.
      The solenoids ran $446 for the pair and I had the trans service (fluid, filter) that ran about $225 - MB ATF is a bit more $ than the Chrysler spec ATF+4. I'm still utilizing the OEM clutch material, but its different from what Chrysler uses is their version.
      Very happy with the results - much more responsive transmission, faster / firm shifts and instant downshifts (throttle or with shifter).
      "Woke up" the transmission. Thanks the the Mopar guys, I learned about this for my 'Benz
      My Challenger is a 6-speed stick..."
