4C Suspension repeater telltale lights
One small area of dissatisfaction with my 2012 XC70 is the placing of the 4C suspension selection buttons. While moving all three buttons would pose a difficult problem, I realised that what I find the most irksome is having to look down at the base of the central console to try and see which suspension setting is selected. This means taking my eyes off the road and squinting to see the tiny lights which are hard to make out on a bright day if I'm wearing sun glasses. So that's the problem.
The solution might well be leaving the buttons where they are and installing three warning lamps on the edge of the plastic ledge under the dials behind the steering wheel. I've painted them in on the picture. What I would need is advice on the selection of the lamps and the pick-a-back wiring from the buttons to the repeaters. The final effect would be that I could see which suspension setting was selected by looking at the dashboard and not down into the car. Do not understand why Volvo didn't integrate these indicator lamps into the dash in the first place. Can anyone with intimate knowledge of the wiring on the XC70 suggest what lamps I need to provision and how the wiring should be configured.
