    It's funny... I've searched a bunch of places to try to find out where to wire the parking brake connection, and EVERYONE just talks about how to bypass it instead. I'm going to connect it to the brake first and at least try it that way. If I hate it, the parking brake only takes a half inch or less of movement to "activate" and I'm pretty sure that doesn't engage the brakes at all. If I still hate that arrangement, then I'll order a bypass or just wire in a relay myself.

    Anyway does anyone know how I figure out what wire to tap into? I'm imagining there will be a ground and a 12 volt wire going into that switch, and I just need to tap the 12 volt wire.
