    ?

    So if I wanted to use these on say an ABS or YWM modification,

    How could you wire it so when you "open" the circuit for the ABS or YWM and the led be operating, but when you "close" the circuit in turning the switch off the led goes out,

    I think I can do this with a 5-pin relay, I am researching this now as I have never had to use a 5-pin relay in a car before, lol...

    I am now hunting for a NC 4-pin relay, just the opposite of all the others in the parts stores, lol...

    Pretty sure this is what I am needing.

    When the switches come in and I get my wiring figured out I'll follow back up.

    If im not mistaken you can use a regular 5-pin just to give the switch led ground.

    10-4,

    I am looking into that also,

    I have three real cheap SPST relays coming off of ebay, but they are NC, I want to run the ABS and YWM wires on the NC circuit so things are like normal then when i supply power to the relay through your switches I'll have an LED working as the indicator and the relay will charge and open the circuit,

    In theory it's awesome, If I can make it work is to be seen, lol...

    those are identical to the ones i made for my truck, if i would have known you made them for $12 i would have just bought them. :) looks good!

    The only issue i have had is the switches must be made poorly the LED burned out in 2 of the 4 i have installed, i use relays for what its worth.

    no doubt there..

    but at $6 give or take for the switch and connectors, plus the careful PITA of fitting them in the blanks, i would gladly pay $12 next time :)

    Update on switches and seller,

    Superb....

    He resolved a bad switch for me,w/out me even asking, lol...

    FWIW the yellow switch is "Perfect" because it's just a tad yellower then the amber lights for your "AC" and "Recirc" indicators on the HVAC controls.

    This switch saved me almost 70 bucks as I wanted to get the FJ switch and be all fancy, all I really needed was this one, Looks great and works simple.

    I have a red one and a non-lit version I want to use now, lol...

    A+

    Can you make any that illuminate in two places? One when the accessory is turned on and another that can be turned on when your headlights are turned on.
