    front drive man, front drive. To use the parking lights you move the lightswitch one click instead of two.

    it took me two months after i got my car to figure out how to turn the brights on, you pull the lever that has the light thing on it towards you, then on your guage cluster you should see a light indicating your brights are on, if your lights shut off when udo this then the fuses are gone or bad

    Don't feel bad. I'm still trying to figure out the practical purpose of that switch between the middle air vents.

    the switch changed the intensity of the air, for example, if its just the driver in the car, you push it up (i think its the up one) and like 90% of the warm air is focused out of the two closest or one vent closest to the driver, when other people are in you push it down and its spread evenly through all vents

    LOL, it still makes no sense to me. If I want the car heated up, that means I want the entire car warm. Not warm feet and a cold nose.

    i always mess with that thing but have never noticed anything different. i don't think it works, i guess i'll need to try it now that i know what it's function is.
    worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do but gets you nowhere

    im a newbie, i ask stupid questions, and they flame me all the time... its just something they do... my vents always put air in my car... is that normal for 3Geez? even when everything is off air still comes in, and its laways the temp of the climate control switch, which doesnt go down to cold anymore, its stuck at least 1/3 to hot, it can go to hot, but if you push it to cold it moves back up 1/3 of the selector immediatly...
    cold[----[]-------]hot it wont go colder...

    Somewhere a honda engineer is crying... he probably thought it was such a cool idea too.

    Nor have I noticed a difference. I say try putting it in the middle, maybe that'll work.

    the only possible perpose could be waking the driver up on long drives with some cold air... other than that it is just wasted plastic.
