GTA Subwoofer gain switch pinout

My car no longer has the stock subwoofers or amp, and I'm hoping to find a way to use the stock switch to control my aftermarket amp. Anyways, after a little experimenting with a spare switch tonight, I've figured out the switch pinout. I figured I would post it in case anyone else is looking to do something similar with this switch.

Note: I don't have a way to find backlight polarity by just looking at the switch - the bulb lights with polarity either way. This shouldn't matter anyways though, since you'll probably want to keep the backlight working - so just leave those wires on the harness unmodified.
