Unplugging DME
I am fabricating some mounting points for my 6 point harness in my 88 and I need to move the DME in order to get the anti sub belts in the correct position. Moving the DME box is no big deal, but I would like to know exactly HOW it unplugs. I know I must disconnect the battery first. Do I simply unplug it from the box or is there some hidden fasteners that I should know about. I looked in my Bentley's manual but it just says to unplug it. I would rather be safe than sorry.

It is OK to just unplug it. It has a metal tab on one side that you push back, and the connector comes out. It is held onto the floor pan by 4 6mm nuts, and it's out. You will not hurt anything by unplugging it, unless you drop it or something! It is an early, simple ECU so you won't erase any adaptations or anything by disconnecting the battery.
