OMG, I can't believe that I didn't notice that, and worse, I always try & remember to
proof-read my posts.

Don't tell anyone I have a degree in English.

Haha, yes, thank you! I was so embarrassed by my flagrant misspelling I forgot to say thanks.

Finally had time to install it, thanks everyone for the help.
Just a quick question though. Are the P5 and MSP strut bars different? The bracket instructions for the cruise control were very different from what Nik posted.
I figured it out NP. It was close enough to give me a good idea on how to do it.

I don't know, but the only thing that could be different is the bracket on the passenger side, as the MSP doesn't have cruise.

The bar itself is the same between P5/MP3/MSP .. they're just different colors (red/yellow/silver) but the brackets may differ due to lack of cruise.

Weird.
I bought mine used from Hughes412 on msprotege...it's black, but I think he may have painted it. In any case, everything lined up right, including the cruise bracket relocation except for one bolt. It's off by at least half an inch. And the picture of the bracket Nik posted is different from what I had.
