Started thinking... wouldn't it be cool if you can somehow have one of your buttons on the steering wheel activate this feature? Instead of having it on the shifter base plate
Hi all,
For the switches use with LED, what type of switch?
Any link to check which switch to get?
I noted that the switch use buy Roskinc has 4pins on the switch but those I saw on ebay etc has 5pins?
So which one to get?

I have bought the illuminated momentary switch, the back has 5 pins. bought the 19mm unit.
The switch I believe is the same as Roskinc.
Anyone has the pic or info on where the pins on the switch is connect to #8,#9 & #10.
Meaning I don't know what are the pins on the switch are meant for which input on #8,#9.
C connect to #?
NO connect to #?
NC connect to #?
+ connect to #?
- connect to #?
Thank a million for help.
