Controls for nitrous
I was sitting in my car today playing with the radio controls on the steering wheel but since I have an aftermarket headunit the controls obviously don't work. I started thinking that these buttons would be awesome for nitrous controls. For example; have the 'volume' button control a bottle opener, 'play' button could arm te system and 'mute' could be used for a purge.
I doubt anyone has done anything like this, what would be involved in doing something like this? I mean, is it just wires behind the controls, would you just be able to run the proper wires from the nitrous funtions to each button? Anyone have some input on this. I mean theres buttons on the steering wheel with no use and I think this would be an awesome idea.

Anyone have some info on this? This would be the cleanest place to put nitrous controls unless someone has other suggestions? My ashtray already has switches in it so that's not an option. Anywhere else?

How funny, I'm taking my car to the stereo shop tomorrow. They are going to wire the "Mute" button up to my arming switch. Only charging $65, thats not bad at all. As for the setup your right, no one will know you have it, and since it is safety relayed then its safe. Plus the only time you use the mute button is when your on the phone, but if the safety isnt hit, it really wouldnt matter. I'll tell you what the outcome is. Good luck, and great thinking.
