Installing tether

[altaredneck]

Just picked up an 2007 m6 for my kid and wanna install a tether. Are these a plug and play thing. Or how hard are they to install. Would like to put them on all my machines. Where are these purchased. Sorry if this has been brought up before but couldn't find the thread. Thanks for any help

Not sure if you can get the plug and play ones for an '07, but I just get the $14 ones from Crappy Tire and splice 'em in. Each wire from the tether goes to one of the wires going to the key. Just use the squeeze em on inline splices and you're good to go. Eezy peezy.

yes they are a plug an play just go to a cat dealer and they will hook you up with the right one

I installed them on my 09 ' s. Very easy and quick to do. They came with the wires needed. Simply plug in the one you need.

We have Polaris 04's but even they had a spot to tie into. You need to verify if you need a NO (normally open) or NC (normally closed) circuit.

Some kits here...

Get the OEM Cat one, super easy install, the wires should be there near the steering column, I think its brown and purple or something like that. There will be 2 with plugs wired onto them already

It's all plug and play i have one on my firecat, Arctic Cat makes a kit for it,

15min install these are super easy to do and buy and extra pull cord with boot because they do crack occasionally and can be a real pain in the backcountry getting it to run once split

why would a cracked plug in be a problem just open the hood and unplug the wiring

A better question is: If they're gonna go to all the trouble of prewiring the sled for it, why the hell doesn't it come factory installed? Cheap azz manufacturers! Safety should not be optional!

The AC tether kit is super easy to install...worth the few extra $$$ for sure. Why they arent factory installed is beyond me as well.
