Notice it say prototype shown with optional equipment....what you see here is not production....they already dumped this head unit.

the steering wheel is for steering, i occasionally hit the wipers on autocross already, don't need to be turning the radio on and telling the GPS to find "fuck fuck fuck" while it calls my grandmother

or something..


i wish they got rid of the airbag too.




this thread reminds me of this:

I agree about the wipers... I think everyone has done that, however, I've never accidentally turned on my radio while auto-x'ing or at the track.

well, i'm exaggerating (i've never auto-crossed a car that has controls on the wheel) :happy0180:


but.. i have hit the horn a few times while counter-steering quickly during snow drifts (don't ask my why or how, LOL)


really though, i just see this sort of things are more components to fail, all those electric switches
