Stupid question - after trying to test-fit FRCs on my car I'm kind of puzzled - there seems to be lots of cables and lines in the way ... what all do I have to relocate to get them on???

You have to do a lot of trimming to get them to fit. They aren't even close as they are. The right side especially needs to be trimmed a lot. Hope this helps.

Can we take a look next weekend in Bitburg? Need to do some comparing, as at the moment I feel like I'd have about 1 square inch left after I'm done trimming ;)
Need to test-fit them, get the "changes" marked so I can get them painted ...

I took my FRC's off of the GTO because apparently in the 2004 GTO there is a rubbing issue on the fuel line. :?

I've got a spare set of C5 FRCs if you want to have a spare set to test fit to make sure you don't mess up the good ones

Not a problem. If I can find some pictures of them off the car, I'll send them to you.
