Rear electronic strut to gas strut, easy convert?

Quick question guys, i looked throught the forums and didn't see this topic. But one of my rear stock struts is completely toasted, dog tracks when i hit any bump. Just wanted to make sure before i order parts if they was any other hardware I would need besides the gas strut and strut mount?

Nope. Just bolt in the gas replacement. Unplug the valve control on top and that's all.

We need to build something cool for the Sport Mode switch. Lights? Surface-to-surface missile control?

Switch between two boost settings/maps? This is what I'm doing with the unused choke on my FB.
