Yeah I did this to my car awhile back, I mounted the switch control under the ashtray. You get use to it after awhile and you forget that it's suppose to be on the steering wheel.

There's only 2 wires on the switch, you just splice those into the green and white wires listed above. That's it! Nice and easy.

You'll have to expiriment...one install I read said it was the 2 outside set of pins...but mine only worked on pins 1 and 3. (not sure which side I referenced that from so you'll have to experiment). I had mine connected in different combo's before I found one that would work, nothing broke trying.

So yeah, your only connecting to 2 of the 4 pins.

Well I got the plug today and went to install it. I don't got any green wires coming out of that plug I hooked to the same locations as the pic and my gas petal didn't accelerate any more. It did that after I pluged it to the switch and tried. I'm not sure what ones to tap into. I had to unplug it and un hook the wired to get my gass back. Any suggestions?
