Cusco FSB with master cylinder brace - A heads up for AT owners

FYI
Got my Cusco front strut bar with the Master Cylinder brace today and upon installation found that the MC side requires removing a wiring harness clip and bracket and relocating a small harness.
I basically had to shove it underneath the MC piston chamber and zip tie it for now until I can come up with a better way. I probably should have just left it floating which I may do. I don't think it would do any real harm, I just didn't like the idea of it resting on the brake lines.

I can't imagine it's going to be any different for the BRZ.
I apologize if this has been covered previously. I did do a cursory search.

Here you can see, even after relocating the harness, the strut mount/MC brace will not sit flat without removing that little metal bracket.

*UPDATE*: As requested, I took some photo's of how/where I located the wiring harness for the AT. It ain't pretty, but it works.
