Something like this? 2nd pic shows where it can plug in so it's removable if ya like. This is how my 3rd stage will be hooked up, then you can activate anytime the need arises.

haha so i looked through my garage and found some metal strap material, and i already have some red momentary switch so here is my first version, i will be painting the band black. what do you think? total cost = 0 time = 5 min

so now since i have a switch, i need the nitrous, haha so its in the mail.

Take a black permanent marker and color the strap, it'll disappear. But watch out getting your hand or clothing caught in that thing, could be dangerous.

You could also use one of your factory wheel sws for the activation. Just need to have a schematic of the button of your choice and dissconnect the power wire to what ever it's powering and then send it to your n2o system if that makes sense.
