Finished my power mode mod
Well I noticed that some other members had done the power mode mod so I thought I would give it a try. I wanted to utilize one of the unused buttons on the instrument pods. I ended up modding the far left one on the pod with the hazards and defrost switch. I bought a switch from Radio Shack, pulled out the Dremel tool, and went to work. I epoxied the switch in place and used one of the extra switch covers that I had and painted a "P" on it. Here are some photos of the process:

Re: Finished my power mode mod
Good to see where the power light is supposed to be, mine doesn't light. I just noticed the gear indicator between the speedo and tac about a week ago, it doesn't light either. I've owned the car since August and keep finding new stuff and new stuff to fix.

Re: Finished my power mode mod
Can you tell me more about that ground location? Where exactly is that bolt located? Is it easy to get to?

Re: Finished my power mode mod
The bolt is located underneath the panel that is below the steering colum. If you remove the panel that has the change holder on the right side you will see two bolts that hold a metal cover in place. I used the lower of the two bolts.
