I cant quite figure out how you would go about this im a noob to the whole electronics area (16) but if you hand me a shematic, and parts list i can build it.

so i was wondering if anyone has that schematic on the thread above?

all you need to do is cut one of the wires that brings the headlights up.. i think its the yellow one.. its free and works on all.. i dont know why people would make a pivot controller and waste the money

well, wasting 20$ or so at radio shack isnt exacly wasting money, id learn some **** about electronics, and this would use up some of my spare time lol.

Not to mention the whole winking idea would be cool just for ****s n giggles.

no its the brown wire and you can control it with the head ligth switch (the one switch thats on top of the cruise control switch) and by pushing in and out the switch and adjusting it

Is this thread for real?

I can't believe snapss is asking people to actively aid in his reverse-engineering a f***ing pivot controller.

Almost anyone on this forum can be handed a schematic, and a parts list and be Expected to complete it if they have a reference photo to look at.

Just buy a pivot controller, cut the brown wire, or learn how to make a controller yourself.

People have been making custom controllers in the Lowrider scene for years.

If your electronic skills are as bad as your grammar skills I think you'd somehow end up shocking yourself to death...

And an almost 4 year old necropost, really? Is that some type of record?
