What function can it be used for, the idle button place - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

All good ideas. Push Button start would be nice. Keep it in the theme of the buttons that are already there, and not s big red button lol. Not that there's anything wrong with that. It would just look cleaner.

Fog light controller: front on (with or without lights), front and back on, both off

You sure about that? The JDM cars don't that I've seen pics of.. and why would you? It starts in second gear in the AT, it would do nothing in an MT car.

yes im sure. the toyota 86 in asia, philippines in particular that are LHD cars has that middle buttons on manual transmission cars

Replace that empty spot with a button for an electrical hide-away retractable license plate! No need for those holes in the bumpers or those offset tow-hook mounts!

JDM doesn't.. according to toyota.jp anyways in the few pics that you could tell.

What does it do on a MT car? I actually want to know because I can't think of a single purpose for it. It's an ECT button toyota has used for decades more or less.

DaJo · 06-21-2012, 09:17 PM

I am pretty sure only the AT has that "Sport/Snow" button in the middle; regardless whether it's an 86, FR-S, BRZ, or GT86... We need interior pictures of those "toyota 86 in asia" you speak of.
