MOVING ESP/ACC SWITCHES

Post by SCOTT »

Just been thinking has anyone tried moving the ESP switch and acc switch to the rhs rather than the left where it is hard to see them??

can this be done??

Yep, easy peasy lemon squeezy :nod:

Check out this link - http://www.sciroccocentral.co.uk/forum/ ... 56&p=13943" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The How-To about the smoker's pack shows and explains how to access the switches, then all that is involved is using a Stanley blade to shave a bit of plastic off so the switch will fit where you want it (as the switches are 'keyed' to specific slots, so you have to overcome that). Like others, I have left the ESP where it is but moved the ACC switch to the position one in from the far right. The far right position has a curved edge so can't be used. Self explanatory when you take it all apart - A 10 minute job.

acc button can be moved very easily, you can move it to the centre slot without any trouble (has exactly the same notches) or if you add a small notch as per candy monsters post here http://www.sciroccocentral.co.uk/forum/ ... =38&t=1512 you can move it across 2 places.

as far as i can see the esp button can not be moved as it is shaped on the left edge to fit in the extreme left button location whereas the central buttons are square & the extreme right button has the right edge shaped. i guess you could put it in the right button position upside down possibly depending on locator protrusions..?
