Interesting. Any idea how the guy on the video did it, using the original dial?

 

He installed the custom switch under the dial. I'll try to find his original report.

 

huahuahua, good to know that I am on the right place to get used parts. =)
I've changed the dashboard of my previous car in a similar way. Will try to visit some scrapyards, after I find them (I was not born in Quebec).

I am seeing that I will not resist to buy this darn tool

Awesome! Very good.

 

Hooray! Found it: Ds mode in-dial switch installation

 

Nice topic! Several pictures, but you must be logged in to view most part of them. It seems that there is a lot of information on how to "connect the wires".

edit: it seems that the site selling the Chinese Lexia is down.

 

Poza Rica, Veracruz.

This thing does not work in my Out, and tried everything (freezing method, firmware upgarde for Lexia tool, review of PCB). Unfortunately I can not enjoy the configurations that have been Vadimus, Claude_A, snif, snif

 

Thanks for the info Vadimus. Do we know what the Ds mode does for the automatic 6-speed? I can only find references for it on the CVT. Also, is there any info on the eco mode that is available in Europe? Can we trigger that as well?

 

Yes, 6-speed will do too.
As for ECO I know where is that setting, but still do not know how to change it.

 

Here is the page from the 2007 manual. Notice The gear selector goes from P to Ds

 

I am not really ready to cut transmission selector cover for making extra Ds position. On pre-2010 models this cover was black, but with our shiny cover it would definitely look ugly.
