Default Nitrous kits on C5s

Did some searching and didn't see very many pictures of installs on vettes.

I've got a TNT kit that was setup for my camaro, and need to change it for the vette... I don't have the power ring, so I may have to invest in one of those.

I'm also quite curious as to how the switch panels are run... had the NX switch panel on the camaro.

I was looking at the cigarette lighter/ash tray area to see if there's a way to run a custom panel there... anyone done this?

Just trying to get some ideas.... thanks in advance!

Default Switch pannel in C5

For the switch pannel mounting:
The NX switch pannel fits perfectly where the ash tray goes. You have to-
1. remove the ash tray
2. Remove the single screw behind it, I think it was a torx
3. cut the plastic pannel that is behind the ashtray ( the switches by themselves fit without doing this step, but it needs to be done for the wires.
4. slide in the nx switch pannel, and your done

It looks totally factory when done and the flip cover still works fine. I though I had a picture but all I have for pics is the bottle mounting and under hood of the NX MAF kit.

Ditto what 860 said. It looks really clean.

I just made one from a Radio Shack project box that fits PERFECTLY when you remove the ashtray. It sits flush and doesn't move at all once its in.
