Default Relocated Cruise switch to the map light (pics)

So I did a thing...

Finished my cruise control relocation project... lol.. just in time for it to not matter since I'm going back to a modified OEM wheel anyways lol, but this is still dope af.

I wanted the button holes to be perfect, so I just trimmed off the aluminum from the steering wheel and sandwiched it into the plastic and body filler, filled and sanded a bunch of times.. its not perfect, but for now it will do.
I will have it skinned in carbon fiber later this summer anyways.

Unique idea. This is the first time I have seen this and definitely a cool option for those going with aftermarket steering wheels. How you plan on wiring it?

Howdy.. actually Al Vincent did this first, its wired to the back of the clock spring connector. Very straightforward.. two wires, no pics though.

i have to admit- i had a brief moment when i first saw this- when i was like- WTF is the advantage of putting your stereo controls from the steering wheel up there....?
doh- then my intelligence caught up with the rest of me and realized- damn- i am a dolt and wow- that is actually pretty damn cool for those that swap out to those fancy race wheels- but still want to retain convenience for daily driving...
