Well, I did this little DIY today...

No more garage opener hanging on the sunvisor

I bought the momentary push-button switch (SPST contact * rated 3A * normally open)

Here are a few pics of the final result.

Single push, garage door opens, another push and garage door closes. Since the actual remote is located behind the light bezel itself I see not loss in overall performance or distance.

The switch from The Source (Radio Shack in Canada) was $5.99, other than a bit of time and soldering...this was a very easy DIY and easily hides the remote .
