Lextronix Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Thats sweet! Now I can have a controller for all my on-board weapon systems....I mean LIGHTS! Cool idea though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbinger Posted May 11, 2005 Author Share Posted May 11, 2005 It certainly does fascinate anyone with a button fetish. Myself included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sixgearstofreedom Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Got the link to this thread from a buddy of mine. I put the A-7D control grip into a VW GTI, but it could easily fit on anything else. I can send anyone the plans if they want it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbinger Posted May 11, 2005 Author Share Posted May 11, 2005 I'd take a copy, just incase I ever get to bored :-) Don't know if I'd put that in my GTI, but maybe in the Pathy! Although it would make a great controller for a Carputer if I ever got around to putting one in..... I'll pm you my e-mail address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precise1 Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 That is definitely amusing... I may have to do it for laughs... B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sixgearstofreedom Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Email sent! I'm actually going to hook the buttons up to the window controls and possibly the flashing lights. I'm not much into "carputers" but its not a bad idea. Eventually, I'm going to be running nitrous, so I'll probably put a button the stick and a button on the steering wheel. I think having a button for it on the stick would be awkward when it comes down to using it. Maybe the purge valve though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimGreg Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Hey, that might work for the pair of 5mm I have sticking out of the grill :idea: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbinger Posted May 11, 2005 Author Share Posted May 11, 2005 (edited) Hey, that might work for the pair of 5mm I have sticking out of the grill :idea: I actually want to install a pair of paintball guns eventually. This would be great for that! Can't find the link now but a couple years ago I came across this dude who installed a paintball gun in his rx7 grill, mounted a large solenoid to the trigger assembly and installed the switch/trigger on his shifter. The guy had two model rocket tubes sticking out the front as well. Would like to fab up a enclosure to mount two pbg on the roof, and have the barrels sticking out low just over top of my light bar. Practical no, but I can dream right? Edited May 11, 2005 by Harbinger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrano Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Great!!))) Something is missing, though... a couple of machine-guns for example ;-))) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vsicks Pathy Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Can't wait to see his wheel. What! No high or low shifter?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowOSU Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I don't think VW offers a dual range 4x4 on the GTi... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slick Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 hmm.. does it vibrate? :o If I had a PA system or some form of firing weapon wired into the buttons..that would be schweeeet.. but only if it doesn't vibrate .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbinger Posted May 13, 2005 Author Share Posted May 13, 2005 I don't think it vibrates, although I bet it could if you really, REALLY wanted it too. But then again....ah n/m *omits obligatory vibrator jokes* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
