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

Thanks Brad370. I will order and install the switch.

Well guys, forget these switches:

OTRATTW :: Switch w/Rocker :: Contura V :: Novelty :: Amber LED :: Lower Independent (Text Area) :: Amber/Amber :: CONTURA V, PASSENGER EJECT, LOWER LED INDEPENDENT

The fore and aft measurements of the rocker are too long to fit in the recessed part of the console where the other switches are. It does fit the hole where the blank switch was, but will not drop down far enough to click into place and allow the switch to rock on and off. It's going back for a refund tomorrow.

I installed garage door openers left and right and the rear fog lamp switch in the middle. The outside switches are momentary rockers and all have custom labels made of white vinyl. We have a cutter here at home for various projects and it came in handy. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1412499510.895352.jpg

I have a Pioneer touchscreen that has usb out of the back. For a quick fix I ran a usb cable from it to the glove box but want to run it to one of those unused switch plates. I think it needs a rubber cover for the usb so it wouldn't get dirt or liquid in it. Anyone know of a usb cable that has one?

Google "USB dust cover" and a wide range of options will come up. Most come in packs of 5 or so.

After going through this thread and researching I found that Nissan Navara/Patrol buttons will fit from aironboard.com.au
Not cheap but they have a heap of designs. I used the Garage Opener button.
