EquinnoxX Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 To the left of my steering wheel is a set of buttons. Power mirrors, interior dimmer, traction control, something for the wipers (defrost maybe?), etc. There is a spot in the middle of the wiper button and traction control for a button but there isnt one there. What other option goes there? I didnt really see any other option that i could have gotten with my car that would fill that spot. Is it possibly a JDM option that we don't have?

Jerboa113 Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 seems like in the jdm market they have something like headlight height adjustment there. I saw a pic of it a while back and my envy of the fact that SOA thinks we dont deserve ANY COOL THINGS except the car itself (which is almost cool enough) made me remeber it. maybe someone can chime in and re-itereate that, but I rember this coming up before. I thought it;d be cool to use those buttons for other things, especially when I was doing my carputer project but I got discouraged by myself on trying to find a way to get the buttons and then them being labeled something weird like a mirror with heat waves coming off it or something to turn a computer on lol.

dv8ingvector Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 the jdm model uses one of them to fold the side mirrors as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownBoy Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 the center one with the indentation is for the folding sideview mirrors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator GT Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Here you go (pic to verify what has been said): http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v628/g8rauctioner/Subaru/PA020041.jpg The blank on the left would be your Wiper De-Icer and the blank on the right would be the VDC off button.

All 3 switches are part of 1 bank of switchgear. You are better off using the spot for the headlight adjustment rotary switch, just to the right of the mirror controller.

EquinnoxX Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 Yea i realized that when i took it apart the other day. That other switch would work. Is there any place that sells it, or is there a part # perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any place that sells it, or is there a part # perhaps? I pretty sure it is only available on cars with HIDs, and therefore, the part would probably only be available in every market except North America.
