Yeah, but I only want to smoke the tires and not the brakes.

line locks are for pussies.
rev it up to like 5 grand, dump the clutch, then move your foot over the brake and let em smoke.
heres an example of how a pro does it:

Nice, I like the idea of the on/off rocker switch;do you have a pic of the shift handle with the button on it. Ilike to do something that is pretty inconspicuousbut looks really prof as well. Thanks for the info; I've got a whole extra set of 17" Pirellis and this summer the LLs will be a "fun factor".

Hey fairlane, The kit was a breeze to install. No issues at all. I put an on/off rocker switch in the console where the trap door to the e-brake adjustment is and a shift handle with a momentary button on it. That way they are only armed when I have the main switch activated. They work great! I highly recommend this kit.
Line locks are for pussies? Yea, ok, get your checkbook out when you ruin the rear brakes.

Now this one may not be a momentary switch; So with the momentary switch you apply the breaks, then just hold the momentary switch down, let off on the break pedal and you are locked in; then when you release the button the breaks are released? If the B&M is a push button then you'd push in and let off to lock and then push in and let off to unlock? Is that how this would work?
I can contact B&M tech to check on their switch activation: I suspect it is either momentary or a pushbutton switch thatwill latch alternately on or off with every push of the button.
The Hurst ones I see, say 'normally open' which I believe is momentary, yes?
I really would like to hide the wire, need to look at that.
Thanks for the info....

The one you are looking at, as well as all others I am aware of, are momentary switches. You are right. Press the brakes, push the button and hold, let go of the brakes. The brakes remained locked until you release the button. The one I got has no wire visible as the factory boot is exactly the same size as the base of the shifter ****. Very stealth. Only a couple of people noticed it on their own. One said Line Locks? And one thought Nitrous.

ok, same method as I have always done; always did RR, LR, RF, then LF (furthest away first) ...still good?
So I have to marry my girlfriend first? ...I don't need line locks that bad!

No need to marry your girlfriend, unless brake bleeding is one of those things that require a ring before she'll do it.
As for the switches mentioned in your later posts. I think all the linelock kits come with momentary switches, be it push button or rocker, they are probably momentary.I used a rocker switch which isn't momentary so I don't have to hold it, but i'm planning to use it as an activation switch and wire the linelocks into the cruise off button on the steering wheel, which would work as a momentary switch, i think.
here's a link on how to do it. It's a link from the no-no forum so i'll have to add some spaces or something to keep it from getting the astericks of death.
