I want to do this hack soon but with switches instead of the stalk, but i want to be able to reset or set the settings that the OBC stalk allows you todo... I guess i'd have to buy 1 extra button switch to add that function but my question is, What spot in the connecter would the pin for reset/set be?

Edit: i read in the directions link posted that "Optional: If you want, you can also wire up the Mode Down, Slot 23 (2001-) or Slot 20 (1997-2000) and Speed Gong, Slot 21 (2001-) or Slot 22 (1997-2000). This would require an extra switch."

So i have 1 question, what is the "Mode Down" function?

EDIT: Sorry, i know what Mode Down is now. Its the same as Scroll Down.... not sure that and speed gong is that important.
