finally someone that explains how to do it! thank you.. Being that this is a race car i think i would solder the wires on just incase vibration causes it to come loose. the last thing you want is it to come off during a race.

This channel is a hidden gem

BEST VIDEO on how to wire one of these BY FAR!!!!

Have to say, many times i've driven late at night or very early morning and when you're on the freeway belting along for a couple of hours in pitch black, dimming the lights does make it a bit easier haha

Thank you man! Installing on a Mitsubishi diamanté 1998 LS and it came with no instructions whatsoever, lifesaver 🙏🏽

Zero chance I would've figured this out if it hadn't been for this video... thank you!!

Going to do this to my Silverado.

Best video to wire these switches also the 3d print class was great

Bruh, great video. Very informative and basic instructions. Entertainment at its best. "because racecar" best reason ever.

Don't feel bad about putting that switch panel in your race car just because you wanted it. I'm trying to figure out how to wire the indicator lights I just realized it had, to work on my simulator rig for iracing etc. 😆 So I'm connecting it to a PC with a USB arcade joystick interface. I'm hoping the lamps will light up with the 5V I have easily available on the interface board. I realize this video is quite old, but thought you might find this amusing, if not timely. That switch panel must be a very popular item, because I got the identical one off Amazon, and I see at least 3 other videos with the exact same assembly shown in their thumbnails. BTW, dimming dash lights/gauges helps you to see better when driving on unlit roads. Some if not all models of Saab have a button that kills the lighting on everything non-essential, even turning off the lighting on the upper range of the speedometer. Clarkson once claimed on an old Top Gear episode that when he asked Saab what technology from their fighter jets had been used on their cars, the "vitals only" dash lighting button was it. Granted, I'm not trying to land on the rolling and pitching deck of an aircraft carrier running "dark", but I believe it's helped me avoid several close encounters with deer because I saw glints of reflections from their eyes significantly before they came into headlight range.

it's a bit late now, but the 2nd wire on the start position goes to the ecu and circuit opening relay. It does on a starlet at least. I hope this helps someone

I dim my gauges lol. I'm a truck driver and if I'm running all night I will dim the gauges I think it helps you see at night on country roads.

This came out while im on my way back from winton look like your having fun with your excel

"Has anyone ever actually dimmed their gauges in their car?" **Gingerly raises hand** In my defense, I got the wrong brightness LED's and my cluster lights up the cabin it could almost be the door light... That switch pod is done really well, quite jealous of your CAD abilities and having a 3D printer!

Awesome video but would be best to fiberglass the switch board mount. You will also probably have glass left over to make more things for car. Fuel line mounts, etc

i've used the start button of this set for my lawnmower lmao

Awesome video bro, just subscribed 👍 Any wiring diagram with a relay ?

You could always use one of those accessory switches for your fog light switch instead of cutting a hole for the original switch

I'm using your videos to help me piece together my ef xr6 racecar haha

At night I looked to dim my dashboard to the point I can just see the gauges and no more. When driving at night I have a hard time adjusting from light back to dark. I prefer it just stay dark.

Cool, but I would have mounted it overhead :)

A 3d printer?! Hows THAT for a lil R & D custom shop. Noyce!

This is pretty late but i just finished my wiring at its not cranking. I did the ignition wire and the starter wire but in your video you have 2 starter wires i only have one. What does the 2nd wire go to on the starter?

Great video man and great success 😊 Is this upgrade still need a key (in the ignition) to make the switch work?

Race car! Great video. Would the installation be as simple as that if the car had an immobilisor and transponder?

I thinking about the same, just what if, if accidently shut off the main toggle switch while I driving??? Can I close that red cover completely down without switch off the engine?

Hey mate, what model 3d printer are you using there and program would you recommend. love the finished job. Excellent finish

Hi. Thanks for the video. I realise it's a long way down the track but I'm just setting up an Excel track car. With your diagram you have a written list of 6 wires but show only 5 connected (no black/white). In the video on the on-off switch you mention that you have a Blue, Blue/red and a Black/red, Should this be the Black/white instead of the Black/red as you also have a Black/red and a Black/yellow to the starter switch, or am I seeing things wrong (or not seeing things). Do you sell any of the printed housings such as the panel mounting Gauge mountings etc.

awesome vid kind of wanna do it it my accent but it's my work car lol have you bypassed the clutch switch yet? I'm in the middle of doing mine now.

Thanks for C.A.D Tip

So I connected everything but my immobilizer turned on how do I disable that? 😅😅😅

i hate to be the one to ask this... how do you know which wires are which? I cant find a wiring diagram anywhere for my car.

Mm great video super helpful. seems super easy question is am i able to do it on my jeep Offroadin rig

is there any way you could wire the air conditioner to power on with an accessory switch? great vid by the way

Hello, is there a light for the red round ignition push button ? I think that button can light up also. Not sure though. Thanx

Can i still start the car also with the key if it’s mounted or not?

Any way I can wire in individual sections of accessories into the acc switches? I.E. the radio, the gauge cluster, and all other misc items?

I just wanna asked, are still available dashboard for Hyundai accent/excel in Australia? Because in Indonesia there are none new dashboard in here😅

Hey mate. Awesome channel. How did you remove the key barrel? I can’t find anything on google or KZfaq? I can see at the end you have it out. Thanks.

0:59 my answer to everything I want to do

Did you use the relay that comes with the panel? If so where should the 12v power to the relay come from? The only video I found that uses the relay made no sense to me because he had the power to the relay come from the push button which would defeat the purpose of the relay at that point.

Excellent video, could you give me the name of the programs that you also used a link to buy that machine you have ... Thank you

Do you need a working ignition cylinder for this? Mine just broke and I figured since Im going to track my project id install one of these.

I do dime my lights in my cars 😂

How long did the starter button last before it burnt up...? I bought two of these and installed them and the starter button burned out in a couple of days and several uses.. roundabout the same time. Just curious if yours ever burned out...

What material did u use to print the housing?

Can you still lock the car and use regualr key fob functions? Can you also still start with the key barrel? Thanks mate!!

hello, this process seems pretty easy, how could i possibly do this but have a bit of security along with it (aside from a hidden kill switch)

So shortly put, I put the accessories and ignition cable and the constant power to the switch and only the starter Motor to the start button?

where did you buy the switch panel from

Hiiii! Can you help me pleaseee I just need to know what kind of wire can I use from button to ignition? 12V 40A?? Pleaseee

Where did you learn all this?

What are the odds of buying a switch panel housing off of you?

How do i know which cabel is for the starter motor?

Any chance this could help me out, my ex threw my one and only key out on trash day

I know you can get them on Ebay, but where did you get yours - good quality?

Okay but how do i know which cable does what? That is confusing me a little bit

"so I ordered suspension...." No doubt you've ordered one of the allowed shock/spring packages in the CAMS 3E Circuit Excel regulations. Really hoping you've gotten involved with your local CAMS affiliated Excel racing club, who would have informed you that the category rules are under review right....now. The rules for next year onward are being checked by the AMRC (Aust Motor Racing Commission) to be ratified by CAMS before the end of this year. And it's looking very likely from all the lively debate within the clubs over the last 8 months that a single make/model is to be the direction forward...and it may not be what you ordered. In the CAMS series, when your car is inspected and issued a log book the suspension in it is also recorded. If you do the log book after the beginning of 2020, which is when the new rules are likely to take effect, your suspension might not be compliant anymore. So to beat the new rules you may wanna get log booked before the end of the year with whatever suspension you've chosen, and then you'll have how ever many years the changeover period is to get use out of what you bought. As a racer for the last 4 years in a Korean taxi, I've followed your build with interest. It's great to see someone showing how it can be done in your shed!

in the UK earth=ground

So the key use for unlock stereng

Can you show me every single part you used in this video please?

Where did you get the button

Can you still use the key? Or can your car still pass mot with this mod?

how about the immobilizer or is that been coded?

Can you program a key to this ?

there's only 1 problem: if someone can open your car he can start it without the key ahaha

just wait until you knock the guard closed while driving and the car shuts off... Switch should be guarded on.
