All the functions can be set or controlled by using only 2 buttons.

The switch unit lights up in white, amber red or blue according to the tachometer illumination colour.

BlitZ company
A brief intro about BLitZ company
BLITZ® began in the late 1970's as a circuit racing team and eventually developed into a high performance tuning shop. In 1980 BLITZ Co., LTD. was established in Tokyo, Japan. The concept was to produce high performance products without sacrificing the capability if being daily driven, commuter cars. A key to BLITZ's success was from the extensive race experience and also the use of German made KKK turbos, currently owned by the Borg Warner Corp. With the integration of KKK components, BLITZ® had been able to produce high performance products for race and street purposes.
BLITZ® has always manufactured the highest quality products. We produce everything from electronics to racing wheels. Every BLITZ® produced has gone through extensive research and testing to ensure optimum performance.
As the automotive industry continues to evolve, BLITZ® continues to change with the automotive industry. As the turbocharged vehicles are phased out, BLITZ® has been able to develop a new Compressor System (supercharger) to increase the performance and horsepower of a normally aspirated vehicle.
Since the establishment of a small tuning shop in the late 1970's, BLITZ® has grown and evolved to a global company. BLITZ® now distributes to Australia, England, New Zealand, Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, and the United Arab Emirates. In 1997, BLITZ® started to export into the North America market and thus started what has become to BLITZ North America, Inc.; a partially owned subsidiary of BLITZ co., Ltd.

- Energy suspension motor mount inserts bushing sets for DC5
This makes your stock mounts more rigid - controlling excess engine movement, and reducing wheel hop allowing for more power to be transferred to the ground. This effect is even greater when applied to a modified engine!
While perfect for a stock or slightly modified engine - these are an absolute MUST for a turbo charged engine (too much horsepower will tear OEM mounts)!
Because these fill the voids in the OEM rubber - they effectively re-align torn and sagging mounts - restoring the original engine alignment and helping it work at it's maximum efficiency.
Features:
Controls torque, diminishes wheel hop and improves manual transmission shifting.
A must to use with modified motors and if you're heavy footed!
Protects your existing O.E.M. rubber mounts from tearing.
Even works with torn O.E.M. mounts.
Can be removed later for stock running, if so desired.
Durable HYPER-FLEX™ performance polyurethane construction
