  Mercedes – Checking Vehicle Compatibility:

  Mercedes: Our fiber optic loop is compatible with most Mercedes models from 1998-2003. Mercedes vehicles generally have more components connected to the fiber-optic network than BMWs. In Mercedes, components with fiber-optic connections generally can be identified by their orange optical cables.

  The image on the left shows a typical Mercedes component layout. In Mercedes, vehicles’ multimedia components are typically located in the trunk near the driver side tail light, or in the bottom center area underneath the carpeting panel. Component locations will vary based on make and model, we will help you find them as needed. Once the component you wish to test is located, our fiber optic bypass will fit .

Verifying Plug & Play compatibility of our electronic strut bypass kit with your 2021-2023 vehicle

This kit is plug & play compatible with most 2021-2023 (for older vehicles please check our other listings). Please refer to the compatibility image above. For a direct-fit, plug & play compatibility the connector should look like the connector on our electronic strut bypass module.

Install the 3-pin ride height simulators first, then install 2-pin shock/ strut simulators!

Refer to the enclosed, detailed instructions for the full procedure!

Securing the electronic strut bypass module to your vehicle

Secure your ride height simulators by looping the included zip ties through the through-hole on the casing. Secure the Strut bypass units using the larger zip ties. A good location for this is the factory wiring harness. It’s already secured to the frame of your car via this clip right here. The best location will vary b

Verifying Plug & Play compatibility of our electronic strut bypass kit with your 2005-2012 vehicle

This kit is plug & play compatible with most 2005-2012 (for newer vehicles please check our other listings). Please refer to the compatibility image on the left. For a direct-fit, plug & play compatibility the connector should look like the connector on our electronic strut bypass module (or the alternate style connector image image), if it looks different (Buick etc.) you will need to purchase a separate, inexpensive universal adapter (see our other listings). Refer to the enclosed, detailed instructions for the full procedure!

Verifying Plug & Play compatibility of our electronic strut bypass kit with your 2013-2019 vehicle

This kit is plug & play compatible with most 2013-2019 (for newer vehicles check our other listing) Buick, GMC, Cadillac, Chevrolet, or Ford. To check compatibility before ordering, jack up your car, pull off the wheel and set it aside. Check your original, active, electronic strut’s electronic connection. For a direct-fit, plug & play compatibility the connector should look like the connector on our electronic strut bypass module. If it looks different you will need to purchase a separate, inexpensive universal adapter (see our other listings). Also, please note, if you have another 3-pin connector on your vehicle (mostly SUVs) for adjustable ride height you will need a separate bypass designed for bypassing the adjustable ride height sensors to eliminate all of your dash error lights. Ask us about it, we are here to help!

Connecting the electronic strut bypass module

The original mag shocks have a wire coming off. This male part of the clip is what we will insert our strut bypass kit on. On most vehicles, simply plug the male connector from the vehicle into the female connector of the bypass unit.

Securing the electronic strut bypass module to your vehicle

Your bypass unit will be hanging, and it needs to be secured to the chassis. A good location for this is the factory wiring harness. It’s already secured to the frame of your car via this clip right here. The best location will vary based on your vehicle, just find somewhere secure to zip tie the bypass in place.

BMW – Checking Vehicle Compatibility:

BMW: Our fiber optic loop is compatible with all BMW models from 2006-2011. (keep reading below for newer models) In BMWs, components with fiber-optic connections are identified by their green optical cables. The image on the left shows a typical component layout with the male MOST connector cable disconnected from a component. In BMWs, multimedia components are typically located in the trunk near the driver-side tail light, or in the bottom center area underneath the cover panel. Components and locations will vary based on your make, model and vehicle options (we will help you find them as needed).

2012+ BMW models utilize a consolidated communication module (com box) replacing the older, separate components used in previous years. Our fiber optic bypass is compatible for testing purposes, however, 2012+ BMWs will likely require further troubleshooting (we are happy to help).

Mercedes – Checking Vehicle Compatibility:

Mercedes: Our fiber optic loop is compatible with most Mercedes models from 2004-2011. Mercedes vehicles generally have more components connected to the fiber-optic network than BMWs. In Mercedes, components with fiber-optic connections generally can be identified by their orange optical cables.

Other Vehicle Manufacturers – Checking Vehicle Compatibility:

Other Vehicles: Countless other vehicle manufacturers utilize MOST (Media Oriented Systems Transport) technology. To check compatibility simply locate one of the components in the trunk area and look for a fiber-optic cable connection; they are typically either orange or green cables. Once located, disconnect the connector from the component to check and see if it looks like a male MOST connector (reference the two male plug examples in the image on the left). Either style of male optical connectors loop shown in the photo are compatible with our fiber optic loop.

Note: There are additional styles of fiber-optic connectors out there, as long as the spacing and diameter of the two on the connector match, our loop will work. If you’re not sure, you can always order one of our fiber optic bypass units, give it a try, and return it if it does not fit.. We promise, we wont be offended

Universal Adapter For M&P USA Active Electronic Suspension Strut Bypass Kit. This universal adapter is used together with our 1997-2012 strut bypass Kits . It allows you to use our strut bypass units with connector styles that are different than the typical GM, OEM connection. You will need to cut off your original connections and crimp on the bare wires to use our strut bypass units with non-OEM connections. These units do not bypass to struts on their own, they are meant to be used with our bypass units in our other listings.  Simply remove the OEM plug from your vehicle, splice the ends of each wire and crimp this universal adapter into place.
