I recently installed the sport mode wiring on my car, and haven't wired it up to a switch yet. I was thinking I don't use the tire monitering botton at all and would love to have a stealth like button for sport mode.
Here are my thoughts..
The tire monitor switch is attached to a light in the dash, which lights up when activated. What if I used the same switch and connected it to the light bulb for the sport mode. Essentially, I would remove the wiring to the tire monitor and connect the single wire for the sport mode, and ground and bulb wires would already exist.
I suck at electricals so please set me straight if my idea is off.
Thanks, Patrick

The sport mode requires a momentary contact and you would need a latching relay to hold in the bulb (keep it illuminated).
Use John's (or dwm's) controller...
