Default How the hell you guys squeeze a FMIC in???????

Today I was looking at the room between the radiator and the front bumper and I found there is not much room for nothing there I could barely put my arm there, so how the hell are you guys squeezing these FMIC inside, anybody have any DIY's or pics on a b5, I was thinking of buying a front mount and having the piping custom done but this project doesn't look easy at all, so whats the tricks to this????

hacking away at the front bumper. Ask tom, he'll let you know what sizes can be fitted with minimal cutting... and what sizes require you to leave your bumper hanging by threads :P

Did you have to remove your front bumper to install it or any cutting?

The bumper has to be removed and u hafta trim the **** out of it. for the stock a4 b5 bumper you will want a 24"x6x2.75" core and that will need alotta trimming still, anything higher requires trimming the bumper support
