I am de-ricing the Civic I bought recently (need to start a build thread). It had some SWEET neon lights in it hooked to a switch in the dash. After removing all the stuff I decided to leave the useless switch rather than just have an empty hole. I am going to use the label maker in my cubemates desk when he isnt looking to give it a name.

I turn to hive for suggestions. This is in a CX so it has something like 70 horses.

NAAAWS? TURDBO? MACHINE GUNS?

Love the trunk monkey ads. Thanks for the reminder to go watch those again!

I vote for just labeling it "On" and "Off". Then leave it "Off" and you can always tell people that it was that good when "IT" was turned off, they should see how awesome it gets when you turn "IT" on!

That might be the most obvious choice.

You could have a label next to the switch, "I feel the need..." Then ON could be, "for SPEED!" and OFF could be, "for tweed! or "for more cowbell!" or something else nonsensical.

One side should say "magic" and the other "more magic". Remember, though, that a switch labeled that way MUST be kept "more magic" position

Has anyone ever tried "Spaceteam" on iphone? It's a game where you have to shout commands at your team mates (must be played in groups) but the controls to fly your space ship are complete gibberish. http://www.sleepingbeastgames.com/spaceteam/ It's free, btw. You should be able to pull any number of strange sounding switches from that game, including stuff like "activate sigmaclapper," "infuse tea," "Spring-Loaded Irritant" and so on.

I vote for this is you can somehow attach it to an actual cowbell somehow.
