Great idea for anyone wanting to add a device! As far as switches go the MB one's are nice so your efforts are 100% worthwhile.

I just couldn't bring myself to use a generic switch. It would look so out of place unless I hid it somewhere. I'm **** like that.

Whats the point of any mod?

Installed a Laser Interceptor and needed to install a kill switch. I wanted something that would look good and not just some universal switch.

I linked to the full thread I posted over on the non AMG page that tells the full story.
