Anyone notice like 3-4 blank areas to the right of their side mirror controls that are just begging for various switches and buttons of some sort?

I'll post a picture of it later when i get home, but just wondered if anyone had put those to use yet.

Button one: Passenger seat Eject
Button two: Tire spikes
Button three: Rear flame thrower
Button four: Front horn that plays "La Cucaracha" at an obscenely loud volume

I use them for my hydraulics

LOL!

But really, they are for interior light kits and other various add ons that require a switch.

Yep... my scion security takes up one, and I've seen pictures of people with the illumination kit that takes up another. I've added a switch into one to turn my sub on and off. That leaves a few extra...

i put the coinholders for quarters from the '05 matrix into 2 of those panels.

I could use those... too bad they didn't give those to us. Oh well. I'll deal with my little alternate change holding area.

i still have change in the upper arm rest, but its a pain in the ___ because everytime i lift the armrest, the change rolls to the rear part of it.

I'm confused.....are we talking about switch panels or coin holders?

I'm pretty sure the Matrix had some coin holders that fit in the switch panel slots. The little switch panels pop out and can be used to hold other things of the same size. My way old 88 Camry had a couple of those slots with little coin holders in them.

Now I get it.....

I'm just happy to have some damn cup holders in this one.

One of mine has the LED light switch, the other has the security icon. I know one can be used for fog lights. I'm not sure what else would 'officially' go there.

Dunno, but since they have the space it doesn't make any sense to not take it up with something. I'm glad they left space for whatever we decided to put in.

Ahem....

:D

That trunk monkey release keeps coming back up...

What I wish I could get is some nice little lettering, like they have for "illumination" with the LEDs. Frankly, I'd like that little switch too, although the one I got at Radio Shack for my subwoofer cutoff is pretty decent.

i used 3 of the slots
1=alarm led
2=bass knob
3=fog light switch

Ahem....

If you get the fog lights w/ the scion accessories does that take up a space? Or are people talking about aftermarket fog lights that take up an extra space?

I think either one of them can but I don't know if the dealer supplied ones do by default. If I had the fogs I'd definitely want a seperate switch as well. Too bad you can't buy nice prebuilt switches from the dealer for your DIY projects - I like the ones for the interior lights with the little switch that say illumination on them. But now that I have my sub switch, I'd probably just match that with anything new. The labeling is nice though - I don't know another way around that.

niceeee :clap:

In fact, just dremeled in a switch for my underdash neons :). Total cost of rad blue neons: $0.

Maybe one of them could be used for the Mt. Dew Dispenser discussed in another thread....

Mine are all full up. Funny how none of the switches even remotely match in color, and they're all Toyota-- well, except for the bass knob, which actually matches the best. :P

^^ It does look like the bass knob plate matches the security plate...

I know the topic is about what to add to these blank panels. But I need to get a blank one to replace one that is missing so there won't be a whole there. Anyone know where I can get them?

They're there for customization. Just go sit in your tC for like 30 mins and look around, theres hundreds of different things and places that look like they were designed to be customized.
