Aux input in toggle panel

So I just installed my Aux input in my mini. What I ended up doing was drilling out the middle of the of the blank spot for the DSC in the toggle panel and drilled a hole through the circuit board off center so it didn't interfere with the circuits and ran it to my stock head unit. And it works, will post pics later.

Sounds like a great idea, especially for us '05ers who all have an open space due to the no rear fog rule.

Unfortunately the html is pointing to your PC drive and not to the web site. But here are the pictures ...




Very nice and tidy job - well done.
Did you take any pics of the disassembled toggle switch panel?

thanks GB
no I didn't get any pics of the toggle panel disassembled. I used someone elses diagrams of the PCB to plot where to drill the hole. I drilled it basically in between the window and DSC switch and lower about .5 inches. I followed that hole all the way out through the toggle bank and to the back of the head unit.
