How to replace the red seatbelt release button

Re: Turbo control solenoid compatibility question.

Btw, this is where I placed it. Extended the cable and reused the IPD bracket since I already had the holes for it. It is aslo much smaller than the IPD valve which makes installation easier. After driving with it for some time I have to say the difference is huge. Before boost control was pretty mu...
