Speak to 'Kaddis', i think he has done this conversion to his EL XR6. He may be able to help you out with instructions on the installation.

Im doing the conversion tomorrow man...
If only you were in perth. :P Not much to it ay, but it helps if you have the cut end of the harness off the donor car with the plug on it. Its not a direct plug in mod but it isn't really that hard to do... Ill post another post in a bit when i find my notes on how to do it :P
