Aux switches on 2015MY V60
I need to fit a switch for an auxiliary 12V feed and don't want to drill holes in the cabin trim if avoidable.
In the centre console there are several unused blanked switch position. Is it possible to add switches to them and use them for purposes other than Volvo intended? Alternatively, has anyone fitted any aux switches to a V60, if so, where? |

The question came about when looking at chapter 8 roof mounted beacon / lights, but applies to anything that needs 12V from a switch in the car.
I know that relays will be needed, but that's easy. The tricky bit is a neat, professional looking switch, ideally using what is already fitted. What's +15 feed? |

My solution in case it is of use was one of these:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/INSMA-Wirel...3515716&sr=8-6 Made up a loom with a feed from the 12V supply and a flying lead for the lamp, now I can turn it on / off remotely even when out of the car. |
