hi all, I've been working on something I call the "auto-everything" module for the GenII MINIs. I thought that I'd post something here that's working really, really well.
One of the features in the module is that you can quickly tap any of the buttons in front of the shifter to toggle relay control lines. "tap-tap" is all it takes to turn something on or off. The module has three channels (some lucky markets have three working buttons in the shift console), but for most US cars, only two would be hooked up.
This means that if you want to add aftermarket fogs or a stealth radar detector or whatever, you can control the accessory from within the cabin without having to drill the dash to mount some button that doens't look "mini-ish".
The module is undergoing final testing now, and will be available to ship in about a month. More information can be found here. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to post here or send me a PM.

ps, now that I think about it, this will work on any car that has momentary contact switches that short the output to ground! heck, it would even work on the R50/52/53 or whatever chevy you happen to drive (if it has momentary buttons).
So, would us R57 Convertible owners use this as a one-touch (or double tap) Windows down and top down and one-touch (or double tap) Windows up and top up?
