Any NEW ideas for the Dummy Switches in the Sport Package?
 
I'm still looking for something to replace the awful dummy switches in my 2013 370 w/sport pkg. I'm thinking a USB port for one but still not sure about the others.... Also, Has anyone seen a console replacement with 2 cup holders?

on my Z, im using some oem style rockers a member here found. check the interior section.

one for interior lamp, one for dvd bypass, one for rear fog.

not sure if you want to put a usb port facing up. one spill or drop of water and your fuse will blow.

I had a hell of a time finding a USB port that I can properly wire to handle 12V and at least 2.3 amps :shakes head: I pretty much have given up at this point :ugh2:

But yes, I would putting them face up. Who allows food and beverage in their Z anyway? :icon17: A fuse is cheap to replace :tup:

Subd, I'd love to replace the center one in my car at some point. How do these rockets look? Post some pics.

Really do wish there was a USB port on this car, one that I wouldn't had to have paid $6k extra to get.

Guess I'm going to have to wait until I can get a 2DIN HU compatible with the iPhone 5.

There's this option for the dummy slots, which I'll be doing soon I think. Getting annoyed with my radar detector cord blocking my clock...
