It wasn't really that much of an electrical surgery as you might think. In fact, I didn't use a knife or blade. I just unraveled the electrical tape by hand and slipped off the split wire loom. The MAF sensor wires were easily separated from the rest of the wiring. I then put the rest of the wires back into the factory loom, then put a new split loom on the separated MAF wires. No worries about cutting wires or messing anything up. You see guys on YouTube taking a utility/box knife to the loom...no thanks.
Time is worth more than money to me, so had I known there was an extension harness, I'd easily have spent $35 to save 15 minutes.
