Subject: Green "button" on the dash

Hello all,
there is a green "button" on the dash of our '76; see here in this pic of smassoni 's car.

What is that space-holder used for?

TIA!

You can find similar switches on E21's if you want to make your dummy switch operational..

Rear Fog light if you have that option although not popular in the US as in Europe; like London, or the autobahn at night with super high speeds.
We have a better chance to use em here in San Francisco, but you still get rear ended. Look at Delia's Mae West or that Inka tii on 2002ad.

Hang up the phone and drive.

Mine shoots the passenger through the sunroof at a high velocity. It really surprised me the first time.

I have mine hooked up to dispense dollar bills to the antenna stripper.

On my late model 02, the green button controls the rear window de-fogger.

You can hook it to many appliances you choose to run, rear fog, front driving lights rear window de-fogger, etc or sell it for real money on e-bay.

You can't outrun Dukakis. Wait a minute - you said Ducatis. My mistake.

I love most of those answers! Mine ('73 02a) is wired to the A/C. I tried the rear fog lights and people thought I was in the wrong lane
