Default Flip Switch

Guys,

I was wondering if you could post some ideas or pictures if you've already done it.....

I bought my Impreza Turbo 2000 last week, it has a little switch under the passengers seat which switches the boost between 12psi and 16.5 psi. The switch is literally soldered on to a bare wire (going to the ecu).

It works! but looks a little naff, I was thinking of placing it on the dash somewhere, but dont know where, was also considering a flip switch with a cover, so that it doesn't get pushed by accident.

Any ideas on location of switch and switch type?

would be nice to see some classic turbo 2000 piccys!

Thanks!

I have recently fitted a Dawes AFR meter to a MY00 and used a push button switch sourced from Maplins as a means of switching it on/off. I mounted the switch in one of the two blanks I have to the right of the steering wheel where the foglight switches are located, so it looks professional and all wiring is kept behind the dash. No cutting or drilling of the dash either. I can get you a picture in the daylight if it helps.
