Momentary Upfitter switch modification

Has anyone successfully made any of the upfitter switches momentary? (so you have to hold it in the ON position, and it returns OFF when you release)

I haven't seen anyone mechanically modify the actual switch to automatically return when you let go. But I have seen where people have used the upfitters to "arm" something like a train horn. They cut in a relay on the existing horn circuit and have it where, when you turn the upfitter on, your normal horn button switches from controlling the stock horns to controlling the train horns.

I did try to do this but decided that, at least for me, it was not doable. So instead I added the momentary engine brake switch to my gasser. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...sers-only.html
