What to do with the three "non-functional" buttons in the center console

Astrosfan · 02-26-2010, 12:54 PM

2 suggestions:
1. a muzzle switch that will shut my gf up.
2. take out the buttons and make another pocket for storage(cell phone, wallet, smokes, ect...)

I decided to use the buttons for my head units aux and usb lines. I found a cover for the usb to keep it clean and smooth on top while not in use. I didnt want the lines just hanging out somewhere so I use the buttons as a holder and an easy access point. Works great!

Thanks! Yes I just took out the original buttons and basically drilled/dremeled out the correct size and used some epoxy to keep them tight.

I put my headlight's LED controls on them.

Absolutely love these switches.

Not sure what I'll do with that third blank though.

I got them from Amazon. Though I think they are a fairly common switch.

So I have been tracking down the OEM foglight switch for days and here are some infos that I dug up.

The part number is: 25370-V5500

It seems that the switch is from Nissan Navara (Frontier in US) or X-Trail (Japan only)
While I checked Courtesy Nissan for the part, Frontier has the cargo light switch instead of the fog light switch. Both switches are rocker type and exactly the same but with the text "Cargo Lamp" instead of the symbol.

Here is the link to a Chinese manufacture that offers the switch:
2012 Nissan New X-Trail Head Light Switch(NT-P-2086) - Dongguan New Top Auto Parts Co., Ltd.

I doubt that anyone would be brave enough to do a group-buy from this website since the minimum order is 500pcs! Lol

Ok, found the switches many have been asking for & where to order them.
Website: Full Size Rocker Switches

Many choices in terms of on/on, on/off, on/off/on, etc.
Some shaving on the two outer pieces will be required if you do all 3 but not very much.
