Hi there Guys:
I'm wondering if anyones added a few extra switches to the dash as yet. I've been checking area that might work and most of the area such as close the the steering wheel would be a hazard. So only place fI can see is up between the two air vents So How does this section of the dash come out, or does it with out ripping the hole dash apart. I've checked also up to the left of the lighter/power outlet and there are wires in the middle piece. Maybe if I got a Micro switch it would fit into the left or right side of this area but I'd perfer the bigger rocker switches. Any Help with this would be Greatly Appriciated.

get a new deck (many call it a head unit.. depends where your from as towaht you call it :p )

youll get a new deck plate (or head unit plate) the it opens a section about 2inchs wide by 8inchs.. you could put a pretty nice switch panel int here.. i plan on doing it int he future

The Centre counsel must be a bit diff between the 05 and 06 models. I have only room between the two vent rings at top of picture I'd say. Here is mine

what i was saying to get a new "stereo" so you would have to get a new "face" plate, that way it opens up a spot in your dash, which that i use as a compartment righ tnow , untill the future when ill throw some swtiches in there

im thinking a starter lock out.. the switchs must be place in the correct order, so you can start the car.. a fancy security feature.. so if anyones gets the keys to my car, they wont know which switch goes in which direction
