Install was quick and easy, the only hitch being getting the gauge to budge. Other than that it's an easy 5 minute job. I waited the requisite 2-3 minutes before cycling the door locks and things seemed to be fine but after a short pause the doors tried to lock but failed then quickly locked themselves. I removed the gauge again, removed the immo and reinstalled both. This time after the waiting period I cycled the locks again and waited, same thing happened. I went through the uninstall-reinstall procedure again, waited, cycled the locks, but this time after cycling the locks I started the car. That took care of the issue and my immobilizer is now working as advertised. Yahoo!
Let us know how the install goes!

Doug- That has nothing to do with the IMMO BLOCK. If you did this all from inside the car, our 993 doors automatically relock themselves when you don't open the door within a minute of a FOB unlock. Got me dozens of times. Try it - get in car, close door, do a FOB lock/ FOB unlock, wait a minute. Doors lock.
I'm shocked, shocked I tell you, that I'm the idiot in this scenario.

Jay,
Thanks for working on creating this solution. Just installed this morning, works as described. Was worried about pulling the gauge, but took all of 5 mins to install.
Super elegant, and the cookies were a nice addition.

What tool did you use to get the gauge out?
