Default alternate WOT switch mounting points

Has anyone mounted their WOT switch, or activation switch anywhere besides where they tell you to? So besides the pedal? I just want to be able to spray on the track without having to spray in first gear, so i was trying to mount mine on my shifter. Has anyone done this or anything similar? Having some trouble with mounting my switch to my hurst shifter ****. Thanks guys

Only places I'm aware of for the WOT switch are:

-on the TB
-under the pedal

You could alternately arm the N2O system with a master switch, and have a button either on your shifter, or on a cord, and only hold the button down after 1st gear. Keep this button in line with all other safety considerations.

Alternatively, you could do as I am doing, and use the HSW MicroEdge to lock out 1st gear.

.

A lot of guys mount on the shifter so they can spray in 2nd gear.
The problem is I've only seen it on race shifters where they just drilled into the housing.
Be careful trying to squeeze it on a stock unit. It would suck to come on unexpectedly or short something out??

Robert56 mounted a WOT switch on his shifter. I don't remember the details but I thought he sort of used it as a lock out.
