    Line Lock Switch mount

    So had the line lock installed in the Cobra and was checking out a good place to mount the switch. I did some Googling and some guys have used a 94-00 fog light switch which fits into the useless coin holder slot. Love the idea just wondering if it's easy to hook up? I am not so good with electrical stuff...lol

    This is the 94-00 fog light switch:



    Here is the switch that comes with the SLP Kit:



    Thanks,
    Jeff

    I love re-purposing OEM switches for stuff like this.
    Two items for your consideration - I'm pretty sure the LL button is supposed to be momentary to prevent you from accidentally turning it on and forgetting to turn it off (happened to me in the burnout box - duhhh).
    I recently wired in a Summit LL and found the factory switch didn't carry enough voltage to energize the solenoid. Regardless of switch selection, use a relay with battery voltage to ensure proper operation.

    Exactly it makes for a nice clean install

    The SLP line lock is on/off toggle not momentary - flip it on, pump brakes to build pressure, smoke tires and flip switch off which releases the brakes and roll out.

    Was hoping I could somehow just plug the 2 wires into the fog light switch and be done...lol

    Sure you can (pump brakes FIRST, then hit switch), just be mindful of the switch when it's activated!
    I also found that blipping the throttle to build vacuum before pumping the brakes seems to help clamp the brakes, too.

    Easy as pie for you, switch is triggering ground side of the circuit.

    You can always put another switch in that circuit so that momentary switch won't do anything when that other switch is off.

    A turbo: Exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.
