I got the Jimmy Jams WOT switch and ashtray plate both for $50 when they had that sale. Haven't mounted it up yet though.

We carry the tps and a Billet bracket and micro switch.It looks like the one in this link.
This one is for a LS1 but the Lt1 is made similar.

the thing is though that it's universal the one from jimmie jams and nitro dave (wish i would have known you had that for the lt1 when i ordered my other parts) is designed for the that application. they are clean and easy to install i can't say from expereince on nitro daves but i'm sure if he is selling it it's got to be just as nice and easy to install, by the way how much is that WOT dave?

For a bottle opener you need a special switch! Well if your talking about the motor type openers or NOS opener. If you use the DynoTune solenoid opener you can use one regular switch.
We sell both opener styles at DynoTuneNitrous.com
