New switch panel is nice!
I have had the switch for 3-4 years and it always bugged me. I know the front of the car is all chipped and I am not a waxer but it looked unprofessional.
BEER99C5 saw my post and made me this great panel and nice switches. It's a hobby for him, lucky me! Good fast service and I thought really cheap price not a cheap product.

I'd like to know what do you have on that EFI Live switch?
Is it a different tune? And if so how does it change your cal file?

Using COS5 and a 2002 OS, a set of custom tables can be activated on the fly for the Nitrous. NA reflects the regular tune, Custom the Nitrous Tune.
EFI Live and the custom OS utilizes the unused Red Connector PCM pin #56. Wire that to a toggle, and when the toggle is grounded EFI uses the custom tables. I am in the wiring phase of it now, but should have it up and running Mid Feb.

Really rough render
Some room for logo's but not much, guessing on switch layout.
Spacing and Font would be better, hole sizes 1/2", rockers outlined
