Does anyone have a picture of the sprintbooster "hiding step" of the installation? I'm trying to figure out where exactly the sprintbooster should be tucked away once it is connected. From what I've read, it seems like the easiest way is to cut a bit of the carpet to give more room for the sprintbooster to sit. Does anyone have a picture of where to cut the carpet and then place the sprintbooster?

Thanks in advance.

no picture but i'll do my best to explain:

i practically had no room under pedal to just "tuck" it underneath nor was the hole big enough. i eventually cut a slit (approx 1 to 1.5 inches) upwards of hole. i then threaded sb in and up under the cut i just made. looks as if nothing is there, not even the wires. hope this helps and good luck

Ironically, the picture you are looking for would look EXACTLY like your car without a Sprint Booster installed and that's the idea in the first place!

A small cut in the carpeting allows the Sprint Booster to be completely hidden!

Good luck and post pix....er maybe not!

Well ideally, it would be a picture of the cut carpet and the sprintbooster before it was tucked away. So you can see where the sprintbooster would be pushed in, but the picture is taken before it is pushed in.
