When the factory connectors and existing grommet is pushed from the underside of the vehicle up into the interior of the vehicle as outlined in step # 6 of the instructions, the converter and wiring harness is plugged into the factory connector on the inside of the vehicle.

The existing grommet will now be on the wrong side of the converter box, and cannot be slid over it, which is why the new one is provided with the wiring harness. I would recommend leaving the old grommet in place, in case the wiring harness is ever removed.

I had to examine the instructions several times before I realized this, it is not spelled out very well.

In the event that you no longer have them, I will provide a link to the installation instructions below.
