Type R Mode Switch in Si

[Jason Baker]

Chill CTR guys!
I don’t care for your death threats!

I did the mode switch mod just because I like it over a button and I don’t see too many people that did it, so I gave it a shot.

Shout out to Ryan Phong for the part numbers! Thanks Bro

oh and I got my hands on a Raceseng Slammer and flipping love it!

Switch looks great. Did you shorten the shifter height? Looks short in the picture.

It’s the 2020 CTR shifter. No short shift. I’m glad I did not do that too. Would have been way too low.
Thanks Man

Correct part number but no the Si wiring is a 4 pin and the Type R is a 5 pin.
Some wiring most take place and pin connectors added. It was slightly tricky to figure out.

So a switch that does nothing?

He has the switch wired correctly to work as the previous button did.

It still functions between Sport and Comfort just not R obviously.

so if you toggle the “Comfort” switch down, it activates sport mode? Is that right? Do you mind sharing how you wired that up?

also… is the “+R” logo debossed in the switch? Or is it just a sticker / painted on?

wow. you wait right there while I type up this death threat.

It works just the same as the Sport button yes!
I will put together a how-to soon. Gotta reverse install it with pics.
The R tags is pretty heavily embossed on it yes. Removing it may be tricky.
