RE: momentary switch????????????
Get a hold of abnmarine. He has been looking for the same thing and may have found it by now. Hurry though because he is being deployed shortly.
I went with a "AutoSwitch" This connects to a garage door opener and is activated by 2 quick toggles of the headlight brights switch. I should be getting it tomorrow. I will update with how well it works.
Good luck!

RE: momentary switch????????????
if you're talkin bout the one sold by HD by time they got pts/lbr/tax on it they had me up to bout 300-350 bucks!! cost me ten bucks to do it on my metric. split open the opener, solder two wires, run it to a momentary and you're done. works great! i also hard wired 4ft flourescents to my opener instaed of the puny bulbs it had so thye come on as the door opens.

I haven't done this mod yet. It will get done when I return. I haven't found a switch that matches the stock ones. Looks at a lot of places. I'll either install a push switch or the AutoSwitch. I haven't quite decided on it yet.

RE: momentary switch????????????
I used a small momentary button switch I got at radio shack. drilled a hole in the middle of the switch blank next to the Aux switch and then bought the rubber button cover from the odometer switch to cover it. If you want I can snap a photo of it.
