MAD ECM Install

For any who have installed a MAD ( Catcher ) ECM...I've heard it's a simple 30 minute or less task...but, I just wanted to get a handle on the steps ( for the record ):

I'm guessing something like the following:

1. Remove the Negative side battery terminals
2. Remove the Fuel Filter Housing
3. Remove the ECM wiring harness
4. Remove the ECM ( Tools Needed ? ) -- I think a 10mm wrench is needed here, but anything else ?
5. Put new ECM in and put things back together
6. Put battery terminals back on
7. Do APPS reset procedure ???
8. Crank and roll...

Any comments on the above would be greatly appreciated ( especially tools needed and anything missing )...

Thanks,

Scott

All you need is a 10mm socket and an allen wrench to remove the wiring harness. You do not need to remove the filter housing... I was able to get to mine without. Looks like your list is pretty much correct.
