Default Moved the headlight switch !

A little project this weekend. I moved the S2000 start switch and my line loc switch to where the headlight switch was. Pretty simple and the gauge overlays match now. what do ya think?

Holy Crap dude, that looks badass. I've been looking for threads with James Bond style cockpit switch installs. That looks so cool.

Where did you find that flip-up missle-type switch?

How much was the s2000 start button cost? (the total for everything)

--Did you get it installed or do it yourself?


Please answer. I'm very interested. Good work.

Why didn't you just put the button and switch in the cubbyhole instead of transferring the light switch? I mean it's cool to be different, but it would hve saved you some time and effort, probably a few bucks too.

He probably wanted to give it the s2000 look. On a 2000, the start button is to the left of the steering wheel. Which is sick, cuase he did perfectly as if were an s2000.
