So - couple of comments on all of this:
(1) To relocate the controller to a different location from the factory mount point - yes there are two ways to do this:
(a) make an extension cable harness that extends the F12 & F13 connectors that plug into the controller either by cobling together connectors or by cutting the existing harness an extending the wires to the desired length.
or
(b) skip the existing F12 & F13 connectors altogether and treat this excercise as a retrofit and use the 24 pin Molex retrofit/expansion port to run new wires as follows: 4 wires to each strut, 3 wires to the console (Sport/Tour light + ECS switch), +12v & Ground.
(2) as far as mounting the unit in a different orientation - by default I have the accelerometer configured to match the factory mounting orientation as Striker said - but it's easily changed in the code to other orientations with just a few line of code...since the code is open source - your good to go.
//
// Map Physical Accelerometer axis & sign to normalized variables
//
int ForwardAxis = 1; // default to Y axis
int ForwardSign = 1; // default to Y+ +Acc = Acceleration
int LeftRightAxis = 2; // default to Z axis
int LeftRightSign = 1; // default to Z+ +Acc = Left Turn
int UpDownAxis = 0; // default to X axis
int UpDownSign = 1; // default to X+ +Acc = Up
