  • Mystery blank switch plates

    Hi all! I am going to be wiring some extra accessories into the 91 Festy GL, and I'll be making use of the blank switch plates on the dashboard bezel, and possibly others. My question is, does anyone know what those were originally intended for? I have the rear wiper and defrost, which takes up the right two, and the dimmer knob on the left, but that still leaves several blanks on the left side. What were those for?

    Electric mirrors, smokescreen deployment switch, and roof-mounted laser cannon. Not sure about the last two, but those definitely should have been options.

          I filled every blank with a fully functioning option. They include power antenna, fuel door release, power locks, cruise control and security. The extra switches were acquired from Kia Pride and RX-7 cars.

          I just found a new switch just like the used one I bought on the bay.

              Does this switch move the headlight via motor? Or, just toggle from low to high beam?
              Will DB switches fit our DA switch holes?
