Default UPDATED - Got My "Sport Button" For Kickdown Bypass - Now Stupid Question

I have an asbestos blanked wrapped around me as I type this; I am looking for a 'sport' mode button switch that looks rather nice looking to wire in a kickdown mod. While I am looking for a round push button on/off style, I would settle for a rocker switch (Jaguar makes a rather nice one).

What about adding your sport mode to the replacement for the window buttons from Hans & Paul?

That could work too. I am not in the market for those quite yet though.

I've got some lambo door hinges if you want them.

I have a "funk" button for my Audi that enables the race gas map. Feel better?

A little; does it actually say FUNK on it and does your car also play George Clinton after you press it?

Yes. It's from a German emergency vehicle for running the auxiliary radio.

How about re-using your rear defroster button. You would not have to hack the wiring, just push the old connector in. If you wanted a push and lock rather than a twist you could put a emergency flasher switch in its place. Should not be too hard to rework the face to make it look however you want.
