Hi,

I've seen lots of wiring instruction referring to a kick panel what is meant by this and where on the car is it located?

e.g. "access the 10 way multiplug in the o/s kick panel"

Thanks

The Kick pannel is usually on the driver side near your feet on the left hand side

astahl is half right, there is one there where he mentioned but there is a second one on the passenger side. They are the panels near the floor on the sides that are easy to kick

lol... That's one way of putting it KS. It's the panels in front of the front doors under the dash.

Often time I refer to it as the panel that you wish you can give it a good kick posted_image

since you got so little room to work it. posted_image

Its a panel in the car most common in fords in which if you kick it your car won't start. Some will get this.

Per DEI is anything from the ground to the roof along the driver/passenger side. Hehehehe, DEI is too loose when it comes to the kick panel.
