Base model heated seat block off plates

kevpotts · 03-26-2012, 10:09 AM

Has anyone done anything creative and/or awesome with their blank heated seat switch plates?

They just sit there staring at me, being so boring and blank. I hate them so much.

I would even be open to turn them into spare change holders. Get a stack of quarters in there some where. I don't know, anything. Maybe I can wire them up to shoot blue shells at people.

Any ideas are appreciated!

i bought the oem heater buttons from courtesy parts, better than looking at an ugly plastic plate imo

You know I was thinking about doing that, but I don't want to have the "well I don't actually have heated seats..." conversation.

Well you can actually buy a toggle switch for the OEM foglight and place it in there. You can order the switches from nissan and take the painted symbols off with acetone and use those switches for anything you want as far as custom mods. You can reupholster your seats and add your own heated seats with the oem toggles as well. You can build your suspension with automatic adjustable dampening and use the switches to adjust ride height? If you are into aftermarket interior lighting or disco type lighting that can be your on-off switch.
Nitrous? Might work with a little elbow grease and the right size switches.

Machine guns, rockets, and slicks activation switches. I'd do it but then I'd need a way to turn my seat warmers on...

if you have a remote garage at home, hook up a switch in it's place imo
