Installing Switches in the Pocket Under the Radio.... - Honda Prelude Forum

Padge · 09-26-2002, 09:12 AM

I am looking to install some switches in the pocket under the radio, I was wondering if anyone has ever done this?

Also, I read a couple times that their is a flip-cover from an Accord that can be used in our cars, is this true?

Does anyone have any pictures of their install with switches in the spare pocket? I want to put my nitrous switches in there and use the cover to conceal them when I am not using them (obviously). Thanks Alot Everyone.

did he cover it?

influx · 09-26-2002, 09:17 AM

no he just left it open, he said if the cops pull him over he's f'd anyhow...

Here are the pics of my switches....

I've been pulled over lots of times, its not illegal to have switches? Not here anyway-- I leave the rear seat down too-- the bottle is plain as day.

...see it back there?

omg haha
you leave the bottle visible by the cops when you get pulled over??

w0rdie · 09-26-2002, 09:31 AM

Yes???? Nitrous isn't illegal.

hmm, for some reason i would think the cops would give you **** for it and start finding some crazy tickets to write you up with...

w0rdie, was it hard to do that. I want to set my switches further back in the pocket so I can close it up, if I get a cover somewhere.

Red Button = Arm?
Blue Button = Purge?
Black Button = Heater?

Hmmm--- Nope... I've actually only had a cop mention it once, and he said 'how do you like the 'nitro' does it help out as much as they say?'

w0rdie · 09-26-2002, 09:38 AM

It wasn't hard at all.. just some metal and a drill.

In order...

Arm, Purge, Warmer ON LED, Warmer, VTEC LED

you used metal? is that what the switches are mounted on?

w0rdie · 09-26-2002, 09:52 AM

Yum... solid steel-- (its what we had at the time) then painted black. Still looks nice after 6 months.
