46810, HRC FMIC. Any good?

Anyone get the kit recently and mount the FMIC? I know with the older setups you needed to cut the bumper bar to route the piping. Also, does the piping run really close to the fuse box as well?

Don't know about the FMIC but I like the color scheme of your car. ;)

Yes the HRC FMIC is really nice IMO. You do have to trim your 5mph bumper, and the front bumper cover a little bit. Other than that the outlet pipe runs through an opening on the brace that holds the 5mph bumper. The piping runs close to the fuse box, actually underneath and you will have to enlarge a hole to fit the elbow that connects the pipes. By far I think that it is the best FMIC for the 420A.

I put one on a sebring a month or so back. There was way more trimming then I had planned on, and it was tons of work to get the piping that came with it to work, I liked the way my star piping was routed way better.
But that IC is way better than the star one, it is HUGE!!!

Thanks. :thumbsup

I may be looking at the HRC one. To be honest I'm feeling lazy and doing all this wonderful guesswork on piping for a custom mount is giving me a headache..

Any problems with running the piping so close to the fuse box?
