I have a 97 Lude with the Tiptronic auto trans. I got bored and took apart my shifter to see how the Tiptronic worked. I did some rewiring and soldering and zip-tied a couple push buttons onto my steering wheel.

hehehe fun fun

 

Will it be operational for the GAP??

 

They are GAP ready!

 

Fing Fast and Furious nitro-tranny! Awww chit!

Impressive work Don

 

LOL! Actually, I have a button in my steering wheel for my NAAAAAASSSS!!!! LOL!

 

hehe you can probably sell those as a kit and make some bucks

 

stealth fighter mode...

 

LOL nice. did you get those buttons from radio shack? they have many just like that... i was going to get some for fake NOS buttons that activate neons inside my car or something. hahaha.

 

Thats KOOL so how does it work, do u just use the buttons now ?? How did u do the wiring??

 

Everything was bought from radio-shack. I'll post a pic later on the wiring job. I took apart the Tiptronic box to figure our the wiring, then I tapped the wires and added the buttons. The biggest problem I have now is the extra wire hanging down for the steering wheel for daily driving.

yeah, those wires look pretty nasty. need to get some sort of wheel cover or something and integrate them. there's gotta be a way to wire those through the steering column.
