  1. This is the cleanest best looking homelink install I've seen anywhere

    Nice job and great write up! :) I too installed homelink and was going to go the switch route but the Targa switch was pretty expensive, IMHO.

    So, I took a homelink box and mounted it in the batwing (cut out the fins and use a dremel to make the holes). It's powered it off the phone cord.

    and installed w/ the indicator light:

    Incidentally, if you find the range too short, just open the box up again. Using two 2"x 10" strips of aluminum foil, fold the 2" side over twice (to make it about 1/2" x 10"). Then wrap one piece around each end of the antenna (the silver bridge-like thing on the right of the circuit board in your pic 5 above) and feed outside the box. Close the box back up and wrap each strip (parallel to each other) around the black plastic box and tape the ends down w/ scotch tape. This will at least double the range you are getting if not more... (good for community gates).

    :)
