Mine fits great.

Of course, I sanded it down and painted it black.

Although I did have to have cut down the Fernco bellow a little.

Did you do a toggle too.. or just use the stock switch that came with it? Pics installed? I was thinking putting it in the ashtray as well.

That is where my switch is too.
No toggle, just the supplied switch.

Not once. Had it for 3-4 years now.

**y2khawk120** · 01-21-2008, 10:41 AM

not mine, but this is the ashtray plate that i have. the yellow switch is my linelock.

I guessI should have titled my thread differently this one got alot more interest... I was going to get an SLP Line Lock and then was told bad things about the silanoid, was told the Hurst one is much better... but I'm wondering if this guy was trying to get his friend a sale. He's quite trust worthy though so I'd like to hear if anyone has had bad luck with either brands and if anyone has Hurst?

**nate_the_great17** · 01-21-2008, 05:25 PM

i do

**Bouvers** · 01-21-2008, 05:29 PM

did you get the kit with the pre-bent lines.. any fitment issues... any problems with the silenoid... and compilments for the system?

**y2khawk120** · 01-21-2008, 05:40 PM

i have never heard anything bad about the slp system and like i said. mines been on for at least 3 years now without problems.

**Bouvers** · 01-21-2008, 05:47 PM

Sweet deal

**SVG210** · 01-21-2008, 06:10 PM

looks like im sold with SLP, how were you guys able to wire it to the TCS switch?

**Mecinoid** · 01-24-2008, 01:45 PM

I don't think he wired it to the TCS switch. I think he installed a illuminated switch next to it on the same panel so that when the linelock is on the switch lever lights up itself.

I used a standard toggle and a Hurst momentary switch paralleled through a lamp for varification that the line lock was activated. I also installed a safety enable switch under the dash just to make sure I didn't accidentally set the line lock.

If you set the line lock by mistake going down the road your in trouble.

**SVG210** · 01-24-2008, 03:59 PM

how would that be possible. i mean you would have to flip the switch, and that was a good idea, JIC someone drives your car and asks himself what does this switch do?

**TheKitchenSink** · 01-27-2008, 04:29 AM

I didnt wire mine to the switch, I picked up the power from the pink wire that goes to the TCS though. I just drilled a hole in the plate big enough for the switch to fit in. There are several places to run the ground to in there, pretty much loosen a bolt that goes to the body, and stick the wire in and tigthen it up. The wire from the solenoid is on the opposite end of my switch obviously, just ran it through. To get the line-lock to work, you need to hold down the brake, flip the switch and then its activated. So if someone flipped it while I was driving it really wouldn't do much I don't think since the brakes aren't activated.

do you happen to have a pic or schematic, on how you ran the solenoid wire through? forgive me im just so new at this.
