that's actually a really awkward position if u are trying to turn stuff on and off while driving, you have to pull your arm back and take your eyes completely off the road to see what you are doing. But i think it looks cool

I have areally bright led blinker for my alarm mounted there, it lights up my whole dash at night


markritch- what do u mean "on the steering column"? do u mean left of the steering column on the dash where there are panels for aftermarket switches?

Just so ya'll know, if you use the Firefox browser, you won't have a problem with HUGE large pictures suddenly popping up on the screen. I know that used to annoy me quite a bit.

Firefox displays the picture to fit your screen, and if you want to see it full-sized, you can click on it and it will instantly show it at full-resolution.

Yeah... firefox is nice but that isn't what this is about.

What I want to know is what does the inside of that console look like? If you put two big switches into it, aren't the wires and backs of the switch sticking into the little cubby hole? Also, I like that location a lot for things like heated seats - its not like you have to play with them a bunch when you drive. Where did you get heated seats? Are they retrofitted into the stock seats? How much? How does it all work out?

i like the fact that I know up is low heat...middle is off.... push downwards for hi heat. when your in the front seats and look down it makes sense. Whats really cool is that its a different color LED for whatever it is set on. It lights up green for low amber for hi.... works very well. It heats both the lower back and butt at the same time. the buttons don't represent zones in the seats just hi or low.

I like it there actually. You don't have to look down to switch it on and off... you can feel the 3 way switch to let you know.

sorry for the huge pics.... mozilla shrinks it all down and i have a 23 in. monitor so I don't realise sometime that I need to tone it down...

Was this a Scion option, or just something your Dealer did? How much were they?
