I'm looking for the diagram for the convertible top switch. I'm thinking of relocating it and want to know all I can about it and the wires before I begin my project. Thanks in advance.

Kevin, my best advice is sign up at www.alldatadiy.net. It's cheap and has not only complete wiring diagrams but TSBs and large chunks of the workshop manuals (maybe all of it).

There are 5 wires to each of the 3 switches, and 3 wires to the lighter. My yellow pen is pointing to the 5 wires to the top switch. All the wires are bundled together and taped. Remove the tape and separate out the 5 wires to the top switch then retape the wire bundle.

The wires on my car look long enough to move over to the other side - I assume that is where you want to relocate the switch to. Jeff

Thanks guys. I'm going to move the top switch, do the Daytime Running Lights hack, and a dual Garage door opener hack this week and wanted as much info as possible before I started. I don't have heated seats, so the garage door openers will go where the dummy switch covers are. I'm still thinking of where to put the top switch.

Regards,

Kevin

For others, you can buy the connector and terminals for the switchs. Very good for hacks, and thanks to Sandy for giving me the part numbers. And I have a 2.5 so the connectors are all yellow. On 2000 up they are different colors.

Here is another picture my Porsche mechanic friend sent. You can see the wires to the switches and they look more than long enough to swap to the other side. Keff
