SJM Line lock I recently purchased the SJM linelock top mount kit for my 02 z28 M6 and I can say I am completely happy with it. Installation is a breeze. The hardest part was finding a place to mount thew switches and LED without hacking up the interior and I didnt want to use the ash tray. I had my buddy cut and bend a piece of metal that fit recessed in the small compartment in front of the shifter. We bent two tabs on the sides to hold the plate in kinda like a spring.
As far as function its flawless and FUN. I did two trials, 1st gear rolling and 1 2nd gear rolling and the car didnt even budge till I hit that button to release the brakes. What an excellent mod. Now I dont have to worry about fumbling trying to get my foot to the brake pedal after dumping the clutch. Much safer IMO. I would recommend this to anyone....and setting up an account at your local tire store hehe.
The only thing I personally didnt like was the momentary activation switch. I went to Radio shack and got a push button on/off switch instead.

What location did you decide on for the release button? I plan on buying the SLP line lock soon and am contemplating different locations. I was thinking of buying a T handle with a button already mounted. Another location I was considering was using one of the steering wheel audio control buttons. Since I installed an aftermarket stereo the buttons on the steering wheel are now useless.
Anyone have a preference based on experience as to have it on the shifter or steering wheel?
