i need a place to mount the amp cutoff switch in my 8. right now the only place i can think of is the little circle piece by the glove box that pops out, which would look clean, but i don't want people touching it. any ideas?

 

Next to the DSC button by your left Knee.

 

yup

 

how hard is that to pull off

 

Easy. You can easily/gently pry one of the blank plates out with a small flathead. Should be pretty obvious from there.

 

sweet. now all i need is a way to get the power cable through the firewall. i've been trying the main harness grommet by the hood release cable, but i can't get enough slack to get it through

 

Power wire for the amp? There's a couple of different ways linked in the referenc
e sticky at the top of the forum. I just drilled hole behind the washer fluid bottle with a uni-bit and popped in a plastic grommit. Good to go.

 

i got it through that main harness grommet. thanks for the help. the switch looks tacky but it's out of the way where only i will see it. and i won't look at it. so

 

So put in a switch that doesn't look like crap. Surely you can find one that looks stock. A flat black circular button that pushes in and out..... would look pretty nice.

 

it is a low profile, flat black rocker switch. it was the least appalling option i could find. i don't mind putting in more flashy switches (chrome, covered, carbon fiber) but i don't like to do it in my daily drivers. i think it's obnoxious. my brother just looked in and couldn't find the aftermarket switch in my car, so i guess it is serving its purpose.
