I don't hate that line of thinking. Definitely easier than going through the firewall and modding the factory harness.

Only thing to pay a lot of attention to is routing of the PT-CAN. There are very specific specs for stub lengths and stuff which is why on the factory DCT harness the PT-CAN goes from the JBBF, through the firewall, down to the gearbox, back up through the firewall again and then to the rest of the car. The GWS is already on a stub of the PT-CAN that I would be very nervous about making longer.
