Re: [DMCForum] Re: Door Switch Alternative



> What is a proximity switch?

It is like a miniature metal detector only a lot more high-tech.  In the
case of what we fitted to the DeLorean, they fit neatly in place of those
troublesome mechanical switches and work the same way only with no moving
parts.  When the door gets close enough to them, they shut off.  When the
door opens, the lights turn on.  If it wasn't for Dave Sontos coming up
with
this, I was ready to mount mercury tilt switches in the doors.

If you haven't already, check out Dave Sontos' site showing all the parts:

Sure, the upgrade isn't stock, but if you are the kind of guy who doesn't
mind upgrading your car as new technology becomes available, then this is
a
definite must have.  They do draw a little bit of current while the car
isn't being used, but it is much less than the preset memory of any radio.

BTW,  I like your user name.  :-)
