I just got a Jimmy-Jams ashtray plate with all red buttons. Haven't installed it yet, but it looks really nice. Five buttons on it, $30. I'd say it is a pretty good deal. http://www.jimmy-jams.com/ashtrayplates.htm

i've got a trick little pair of TINY microswitches (the chrome ones, they look a bit like old style stereo switches) in my ashtray. 1 for warming the bottle and one for arming the spray. i have them wired to burglar alarm-type LEDs that are hidden in the small crack between the front of the center console and the bottom of the center stack.
you can't see the switches at all even if the ashtray is open. you've got to practically put your head up against the windshield and look straight down to find them.
BTW: i picked em up for $2.99 a piece at radioshack.

We used jimmy jams on my buddy's t/a. Just pay attention to which connector is the 5v (light) and which is the 12v (switch). We had fun trying to figure out why the nitrous would only work every 5 seconds or so til we realized we were dumb and had the connections reversed. That's what testing is for though. Spraying nitrous all over your friends is good clean fun!

Ive got the nx panel, which is almost identicle tot he one pictured above. The thing I love about it, is the fact that it matches our interior so well and it fits the little cubby hole perfectly. I dont know if the switches were made for the fbodies, but they damned sure look like it. They look almost stock, and are not gaudy or cheap.
