Post Greddy Oil cooler install questions

I am considering the greddy oil cooler. According to their documentation for LHD cars you have to move some electronic module.
questions
  1. what was the electronic module?
  2. where did you move it to?
  3. overall install difficulty?

Thank,
Elliot

They may be talking about the horn + ambient air temp sensor, I had to relocate it when I had the Blitz cooler on my car.

The two coolers mount on similar locations of the car.

You're moving a heat sink and/or horn. It's literally 1 or 2 bolts. You'll have no difficulty.

PM me to order the GReddy oil cooler; I use one on my car.
