(for all those that prefer to secure their Drivers Station with a little bit of irony).

Why do you get a cooler toggle switch Dave?

That was included in the kit, as opposed to the one held together with hot glue that the beta teams got.

There's another picture on page 8 of section 3 of the manual.

Sorry, I didn't know that the current preship kit had a different one than the beta teams.

Looking at the competion switch I was wondering if it would be a good idea to put a cover over it so it can't be knocked?

I was thinking closed over the top of the dongle with the end open so you can operate it with your finger.

Also what is the viewing angle like on the DS? Can both drivers see thre LCD easily when standing side by side?
