What's that optional button (next to the guage light dimmer) for?

Really? I thought it was a $2000 option for the ESE.

I think someone posted a while back that there's a footwell lighting dimmer or something on Japanese models... and that's what that blank is for.
I could be mistaken, but I believe that's what it was...

The next thing I was gonna say was that it was the auto-dimming tint for the windows..
but they actually have this for windows inside conference rooms. Kinda grey colored, but you cannot see inside.. and it is perfectly clear when off..
It's for the optional air suspension they have on the euro and japanese version.. it lowers the car by an inch if you enable it... kinda like the Audi Allroad =P

But really folks...I believe the blank is for the auto-folding, side-view mirrors they have on the Honda Inspire. I think I remember seeing this on their website.

I kinda would of liked that button to be a power button like on toyota/lexus. Have it programed so that if on...it travels through gears as agressive as possible.

I agree with Davest,
It's for the auto-folding mirror switch that's found in Japenese Inspires. Parking spaces are tight in Japan, and folding mirrors are actually a practical gadget there.

Yes it is for the switch for electric folding mirrors. I was just reading June 01 issue of Car & Driver Hoong Kong edition, they imported the cars as right hand drive Acura TL-S, with side markers and chrome shifter cover and.... electronic folding mirrors.
