Have only been reading (a lot) since I got my '11 3Dr last week but took a quick interest in this thread. It's probably +47 or so, but thank you immensely for putting so much great info together!

Do you still have any of the CC clutch switches that will work on my ride?

TIA

Yes. I try to keep all of the parts on hand, so I have stalks, clutch switches, and the pins required for pre-09 cars.

Cool. If you would PM me your PayPal addy I'll be more than glad to make your parts inventory lighter and your balance heavier

In looking to incorporate all four CC functions into one switch, it occurred to me that the power rearview mirror adjust switch is a four-way, MOM-MOM-MOM-MOM-OFF switch. What do you think of the possibility of using that switch for the CC functions? Do you have a spec of that switch (since you have everything else )? I don't have power mirrors so acquiring and using that switch would be ideal if it would work. I have no desire to mess with the airbag/steering wheel to install the stalk and haven't been able to locate a suitable aftermarket 4-way part.

As always, your input is eagerly awaited

The power mirror switch has an internal PCB that handles switching the four functions between the two sides. You would have to gut one to see if that switch is actually usable. Someone else on here found a nice little joystick type switch.

By the way, those power mirror switches typically sell for more than my $40 price tag for the OEM stalk.

That would figure...I always try to do things in the most expensive way possible

I have the Digikey switches now, may just settle for them.

Thanks for the response!

Did the mod today, using the joystick switch from Allied Electric 127.0.0.1 used (only with the bat handle instead of the arrow button), and the clutch switch and resistors from Scott.

http://www.alliedelec.com/search/pro...px?SKU=9480343

I installed it where the outside rearview mirror adjust switch would've been if equipped. It's easy to reach, and running the wires from that point was simple.



Everything worked perfectly! Thanks so much again, Scott!
