Someone needs to make or offer caps that will fit them to keep them clean.

I filled mine with dielectric. Figured I just clean them out every so often and fill with dielectric.

I put grease and black taped mine closed. My dad had some old rubber type caps that came off some old electric switches and it is the perfect size but I havent been able to find more so mine I just taped them.

I packed mine with dielectric grease then zip tied them so they all face straight down. I was gonna cover them but the chances of me ever putting that monstrosity of an exhaust back on are exactly zero so screw it.

I just left all my crap plugged in and ziptied them to the harness, no electrical problems that way.

how can you leave the exhaust sensors plugged in if your deleted?

prolly pulled the sensors out of the exhaust and plugged them back in. tunes block them out like they aren't even there..

LL has it, the tunes don't look for the sensors so it doesn't matter if they're there or not, it just eliminates the chance for corrosion or erroneous readings. An added advantage is if you need to return to stock for any reason the sensors are already in place and plugged in so the PCM won't freak out if you key it up with stock tunes.

Plus Morgan suggested to just leave them in place strictly for keeping the connectors sealed.
