D3 suspension up?

Has anybody thought about having 2 positions for the suspension sensors? I was looking at them the other day and thought it might be a possibility. Easier than changing the rods maybe?

iv seen a few different systems to change the height of the sensors,, only one sys had worked and not stuffed up the air sus on the car, the sensors work in mm's, and are very sensitive, there is no real benefits to playing with the sensors, only to raise the car at speed above 50kph, and the car will go into extended mode if you bottom out anyway

its best to leave them alone, only if you full understand whats happening

forgot, why do you want to change the height for?

Have system:
Replaces rods with adjustable (two position) rods.
Gives 35mm of lift from standard so when system is on gives a height slightly lower than off road height on normal height setting. This gives a softer ride than off road height.
Great for rough tracks where normal height causes grounding on ruts or bumps.
So corresponding lift in all settings. Will still go into extended when in off road height and on but super-extended when on is not advised and would probably give suspension faults.
DSC still works with system activated.
Works off the air from the compressor and has an outlet or airing up the tyres (for model up to MY08).
