BRZ premium and FRS without heated seats, that blank panel - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Davegixxer · 02-02-2016, 05:36 PM

Looked through a lot of interior pic threads, couldn't find exactly what I'm looking for. Just interested to see what others have done with that blank panel where the heated seat buttons should be. I have seen some dumb plates on eBay that are just stickers that you can put there, but I was looking for a more functional piece. Any pics would be appreciated!

i think that those are the " dumb plates on eBay that are just stickers " that he's referring to.

(i have a dumb plate on my heated seat switch console too).

how about putting a 007-style 'passenger seat eject' button there?

You could cut holes and install the heated seat switches salvaged from a limited brz? They wouldn't function, but no one would question the blank spot.

I have a dumb plate as well. I don't have that any ideas for that even if i wired a button. Maybe the footwell lighting.

If I go through he work to get one of those switches for a decent price, I might as well just make them function by doing heated seats, which honestly I have no use for with remote start.
