    Where will the elec motor go? Is there room in our cars to install the servo motor? Interesting to see how that will come together!

    The electric motor unit installs in the steering column shaft under the dash. Just like most new cars these days that have electric steering. Yes there is room for it in most cases. Very clean and simple. Not even noticeable it is there. Puts a larger demand on the alt but that is easily remedied by upgrading the alt to a larger unit.

    If there is a power loss for some reason it just becomes manual steering and still quite drivable.
