It is so funny to see people get confused by it too. I've had people try to go D->P and whatnot, and they never read the push down, its amazing how second nature it becomes to go move it around.

Interesting button setup for the seat heaters. Mine are next to each other with the foglight button at the "top" or towards the front of the car.

Good catch, Ken!! It was very uncomfortable for me to fumble around under the parking brake lever while driving so I swapped the buttons around since I leave my fog lights on all the time.

Its a simple swap, maybe I'll get around to it someday as well, I keep my foglights on always too.

Absolutely poor position for it in my opinion. Can't see if it's on or off because the blinker stalk is in the way.

What I meant by "all the time" is only when the headlights are on. IMO, the fog lights provide a wider light beam so that I can see the sides better, like when someone is walking on the grass or a deer or whatever.

Yeah the foglight switch is on the dash unless you have a 3.2 with TCS.

You just have to conenct two wires under the steering wheel. On my 2.5 it was [red wire with silver stripes] and [red wire with blue and silver stripes]. Thats what I have written down, but I think it was actually a blue stripe with silver dots. I'm not sure about a 3.2 if thats what you have.

im gonna assume that they aren't working so maybe the bulbs burnt out? or maybe a fuse or a bad wire/switch?
