Finished my new nitrous switch box..





The box is going to be in the center console.. Sideways, velcroed to the bottom and to front-side of the console.

The wires are enclosed in split loom, and exit the box at right side. The wires then route through the console bottom under the carpet. Makes for a nice hidden install..


Switches are:


Red lighted: Nitrous Arm
Top Black with dot: A Pillar Gauges
Bottom Black with dot: Bottle Heater
Duck bill SPDT: remote bottle opener
Momentary Push button: Purge.

Hit the wrong button?


If you're worried about hitting a wrong button.. then nitrous isn't for you.

When ure in the midst of trying to race someone or going through everything at the track it would be easy to hit the wrong button on that setup if you are not paying attention. the 2 middle buttons are identical, I can see where someone might accidently hit the wrong one. It was just an idea, if you dont like it then dont do it.

And to reiterate my point.


If you are "not paying attention" and can confuse buttons that were purposedly laid out with the nitrous arming switch being by itself; then you don't need to be using nitrous at that moment.

Don't see a prob, "ARM" button is "RED" and "LIT UP", others are function buttions and they're all in black. You must be running a WOT switch GTA.

Nice setup mate!! very tasty:hail:

I run the NX 20920 kit.

Summit doesn't sell NX.. I think jegs does though..


Not sure what the PN is.. I've got a lot of extras..
(remote bottle opener, automatic heater, etc...)


I'll see what I can find on Jegs and post it up in a few

Who made your custom WOT switch?

I should take a pic of my switches. They are where the ash tray was. I am sure others have put them there though. I just close the tray and they are hidden.
