Exclamation Dom's Video Switch HELP!?!?!?

Has anyone tried making a video switch like daman's with the 2007 Accord fog light switch and harness? I just picked up the both per his part #'s but am confused on the wiring. Has anyone else tried this or know how to get a hold of daman? Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is the last step on my install. Thanks guys.

These are his instructions, but he used the unit from AVElectronics and the wiring is a little different. Thank you for any help you can provide.

I utilized the navigation interface unit from av electronics, so if you are using a different interface, your wiring to the interface would be similar, but a different color wire. Here goes:

1) Connect red wire with fuse from navi interface to grn wire of switch
2) Remove red/blk jumper
3) Connect red/blk wire (the one connected to contact in switch) to 12V (+) power ACCESS.
4) Connect blu wire to ground
5) Connect and splice red/blk wire from #2 in switch to contact #3 of VSA switch
6) Connect and splice red wire from #2 in switch to contact #4 of VSA switch

NOTE: IF YOU ARE LOOKING AT THE MALE SIDE OF THE VSA SWITCH WITH THE LOCKING TAB ON TOP, IT IS CONTACT #3 AND #4 COUNTING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT. CONTACT #3 IS POSITIVE, CONTACT #4 IS NEGATIVE

Anyone know how to get a hold of daman? I've PM'd him twice but he hasn't been active since Dec 07.

can anyone help? I've already blown one of my fuses from the "add-a-circuit" method. I'm anxious to finish the install. Thanks.
