I like how simple and clean the finished product turned out. For a super stealthy look you should paint or use a permanent marker to make the button on your shifter black

I gotta say, that is one clean install. Especially like the STD ridden reminder :)

Clean and smooth. I LOVE it. :y The quote is pretty funny too. LOL. The picture behind it is GREAT!!! I LOVE the idea. Looks good. The shifter isn't bad just; I KNOW I'd be hitting that on accident and what not. Kind of gay to me to have it in. Looks ricer to me. :-\ To each their own. :y

He has to arm the system before the button on the shift knob will do anything.

I guarantee you have a scrap metal yard around you. Go there and buy scrap. Since they sell it by the pound you can get it for dirt cheap. I bought a 2x7ft piece of mirrored polished aluminum for like $10.00 It even had the blue protectve stuff on the polished side.

Yeah but the paint would eventually come off and look like ----. Since its a Mustang its never going to be a sleeper since everyone assumes a loud Mustang is fast. I just wanted something nice. Like I've always said having a nice clean interior is one of my pet peeves.

I just used my portaband and drill press. I did spend some time shaping it with my grinder and file. I was going to use really thin steel but I'm glad I didn't since aluminum is so nice to work with. The piece I used is actually diamond plate, I had to grind the diamonds off the other side. :8

With the way I shift I'm not going to hit it accidentally. And even so I took it into consideration. Here's the wiring diagram:

Its tough to see but you need to first arm the system with the toggle switch, than it has a WOT switch so it won't spray part throttle and than the push button. So its a pretty safe system. I also don't understand what you think is ricey. :-\


Thanks for the compliments guys. :y

Very nice install... very clean. Are you going to hide it all under the hood too????

Re: Whitey's Nitrous Install.
 
Thanks Whitey and Jon, I see now. Still, (for me atleast) the button would be hard to control if choosen that route vs. the WOT way. I apologize for the rice comment, but my reasoning: The automatic stick shifters with the button on top, and the fact that it's open and kind of like the F&F where you hit the button to spray rather than it being WOT instead. It's clean and I agree to mold it in would be ALOT cleaner and get rid of the shift pattern, but just looks like a fighter pilot joystick. :-\ No doubt its done well and it IS your car and not mine so I'm glad you like it. :y What's the purpose to partial spray? So it won't hit all at once? Buddy's is hooked up to V-TAK not sure if it has to be WOT or not.

EDIT: 1) Toggle arms it 2) WOT arms it again 3) Push button sprays it Correct?
