Im putting in my tach and figured while I was there I might as well ditch that damn white button. I searched and couldnt find the link to the procedure to do it. If anyone could put that up now that would be a big help...Thanks

Some folks take pliers and rip the button off. I have not done that so dont blame me when it does not work.

I chose to put an O-ring around the white part (button). Then i pushed the button up and wedged the O-ring up with a screwdriver. The button stays in place and it can be made OEM perfect in 10 seconds.

Good luck.

I disabled mine several years ago so I don't remember all the details.

I am pretty sure that I used a zip-tie though. I did not break anything. If I want to use that button in the future I still can.
