Default what is this third button, is it exist?

near to the stering, well each time I see a picture or in reality (in this case where the sunshade button is)


first case : nothing

[ ] [ ] [ ]

second case : only sunshade

[sunshade] [ ] [ ] (picture)

third case : sunshade and front light washer

[sunshade] [washer] [ ]

but never all the three buttons

is it possible to know if the third button exist? Have you ever seen all the buttons at the same time?

Its not for the rear fogs. You turn the rear fogs with the same that u use the front fogs. Just turn it further. Thats how it is on my car. I dont remember if there is a third button on my car . Have to check and will post later.


Where can I get sport pedals for the manual one like this one has?

The person who said that was told that they were wrong. The rear foglights are on the left control stalk; same switch as the front foglamps.

in europe, the rear fog lights are at the same place to the front fog light, and models I've tried they din't have the fog light at this place, but with the front fog light on the light switch

you know it COULD just be a spot for a user installed switch. but that would make waaaaaaaaay too much sense.

It´s for the heated windshield, In europe the windshield is heated at the a-pillar and at the wiper parking position.

The electrical folding mirror button is placed next to the mirror adjustment switch.

here is the previous thread https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=245746

Wow, heated windshield? I wish the U.S. models came with that, that'd be so usefeul for those of us who deal with cold weather.

I thought the 3rd button was the automatic folding for the side mirrors in Japan.
