An ABS on/off switch (mounted to the left of TPMS on my custom dash in-fill plate) wired inline with the oem 30 amp ABS Motor fuse located in the relay just above the battery.  The speedo/dash & traction control still work vs tapping into the 7.5 amp ABS Control Unit fuse or 20 amp ABS Solenoid fuse.  It allows simple deactivation of the ABS, but reactivating still requires cycling the ignition off & on to reset the system. The switch is 35 amps w/on/off plate, screw terminals & waterproof rubber boot. Wiring harness is 12 gauge & a 30 amp in-line waterproof fuse holder (connected to the hot side) + ample dialectric grease on all connections & exposed metal. The spade terminals plug into the oem fuse receptacle in the relay just above the battery.  Blue lock tight used on all threads.
