lebikerboy,

I wondered about that. Is it Neutral and handbrake for the rest of the world in the 2008+ 451 ForTwos?

Here comes some hopefully funny sarcasm:
No park?!? Now thats just insane. Next you're going to tell me that the rest of the world is using a simple, sensical system of measurement based on multiples of 10!!
End of hopefully funny sarcasm.

Great suggestion fastturb. I've been thinking about how to implement that for a while now. Well I've mostly been thinking about where to mount the switch and LED. 450 owners, if you have a blank where the fog light switch would go, maybe that spot is a good candidate for the switch. Looks stock but requires running some wires under the carpets.

Another spot might be on the side of the seat facing the center tunnel.
