It's easy to do. Aluminum plate, 4 holes, new metric bolts and some silicone.

Why not keep the SLS pump. I have seen SLS systems as options in euro-spec sedans.

Maybe you can transplant the SLS equipment to your sedan? Cool idea.

All the mounting spots are there to do it. You would just have to swap everything over.
