davidwort 0 Posted August 13, 2004 wot do you think of this? I reckon it looks better 'in the flesh' than the photo too. Much easier to use than the daft door card mounted position. http://us.f1f.yahoofs.com/bc/7438d34a/bc/photos/door+window+switch+relocated.jpg?CCImcJBBCaTizDme planning on putting the roof switch and passenger window switch in this location, doesn't look quite as good but location is not bad despite the gear lever. I saw someone else had put just the roof switch here which made me think could I squeeze two switches in the same position. http://us.f1f.yahoofs.com/bc/7438d34a/bc/photos/roof+switch+relocated.jpg?CCWtcJBBaY1j1Wst David.

Can post piccie here when i get back home if you like? think I saw it before, just the single surround wasn't it? Did you dual the switch operation with the roof located one or simply replace it with the wiring to the gear lever located one? Was it difficult to run the feeds? cheers, David.

G60Dan 0 Posted August 13, 2004 what did you do with the hole that was left in the door card? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kvwloon 0 Posted August 13, 2004 davidwort, Yep, it was single switch and surround. Decided against dualling the operation to prevent trouble in the unlikely event both switches got operated at same time. Switch in the roof is disconnected 'dummy', just attached new wiring from the loom in the roof down to the centre console, cut hole in gearshift surround, bonded switch surround in and away you go! No more looking like giving following drivers the finger when operating the sunroof. One minor thing was had to reverse the open-close connections from existing wiring to new switch otherwise the switch in the surround would appear upside down. Not enough room in the console to just turn switch around unfortunately. Looks good where you've put the switches, as mentioned above though, what did you use to blank the door card holes?

davidwort 0 Posted August 13, 2004 what did you do with the hole that was left in the door card? :) it's got two switches in it http://us.f1f.yahoofs.com/bc/7438d34a/bc/photos/door+card+and+switches.jpg?CCPrhJBBc5IXRZjN Ideally it would be nice to have a mid range speaker (or a leather re-trim!) or something instead, but it'll do for now.

potatonet 0 Posted August 16, 2004 ya I have a midrange right there in mine it looks nice, I would suggest putting the switch on the side of the center console, might look awkward but it keeps it hidden and kinda cooler. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
