Plug'n'play was a nice idea, but connectors are harder to find. A new ECU and a new loom to suit is easier. Land Rover made life good for us and used injector connectors on most everything, so hook up is easy - just needed to fit the MAT sensor to the plenum.

The new loom is constructed from Automotive-spec Cross-linked Polyethelene wire (-40 to 125 degrees centigrade) and Military-spec Tefzel wire (-65 to 150 degrees centigrade). Fuses and relays are automotive, for easy replacement if and when required.
- SAE-J1128 TXL cross-linked polyethelene wire for all except the following:
- MIL-27500 shielded 1 conductor Tefzel for the trigger and WBO2 nernst signals.
- MIL-27500 shielded 3 conductor Tefzel for the serial communication cable.
