Has anyone ever added a switch onto the console, under the dashboard or anywhere else in the CX-5? I am looking for a good location to put a new SPDT switch for purposes of getting the GT+Tech stereo to resume playback of the USB interface after re-starting the car. I want it to be easily accessible by the driver.
This switch would connect the bluetooth module signal indicated as AB on the wiring diagram to either AUDIO1 (persistant 12V) or AUDIO2 (switched 12V). It would allow the USB to resume (AUDIO1 setting) but would allow for the occasional necessary reset of the bluetooth module (by connecting to AUDIO2 and turning the car off. Also, when parked for extended periods of time, the user can set the switch to AUDIO2 to save power.
Ideally, if there was an unused mounting position for a switch that is not installed, that could be used but I don't see one. Otherwise, I am willing to drill a hole if necessary.
