at night...

got my GTS with sun&sound a few days ago and i'm loving it!!

1 little problem tho...when i'm driving at night (headlights on) , i really cant see all the controls on the door handle (central lock , windows , side mirror controls...) because they are not lid!!!! (the only visible button is the one that opens the drivers window...)

Am i the only one having that problem or is the car just like that??

Thanks - Alex

umm did you guys turn the headlight switch on with the fog lights? lol because the daytime running lights will be on but it wont light up the controls, if you turn the headlight switch which is on the right side of the steering column it turns on the fog lights and all the controls light up.

Huh?

The headlights are on the left side of the column, on the blinker switch. And the fog lights are a separate control.

^^when you put your left hand up (like your giving a high 5) u can make and "L" shape. That is how you kno its your left hand the headlight/foglight control is on the left.

I doubt you can buy the auto switch for all unless you plan to buy 4 other full window control switches they dont sell the switches singular. anyway relax and get used to the buttons.
