I don't have my car yet. I'm getting it next week.

I work for a Machine Tool company and we are having a show right now. I was going to pick the brains of some of the engineers about this while I'm here.

3" x 2 1/4"

Pic showing 3" came out bad, and it's pouring out. Will try to take another when it dies down.

I totally forgot about the seat warmer switches... So then I need to take those into account too.

OK, I will show this to the engineers and see what they can do.

THANKS!!!

So ALL American cars have terrible interiors? And this is due to our use of the standard measurement system, which we as individuals have no control over? Care to elaborate?
