Part # for the small, rectangular plate next to the driver-side coin holder?

Post by Psychobroker »

Does anyone know the GM part # for the small, blank insert/plate adjacent to the driver side coin holder and security light? I am almost done with my sub install, but need to order a few blank plates for the amp on/off switch, and just in case I screw up lol. I've already used the one provided for the bass control knob. Thanks in advance!

Don't forget the same plate can replace the pesky coin holder under the e-brake as well!

Yep, thanks for the reminder. That might be used for red under-dash LED's, if I decide to go that route

All i did was open it up and solder two wires to the leads from the push button and then run them to the button by the coin holder.I like it, looks nice and clean.

I made the wires from the button to the opener about a foot long and then i attached the opener to some of the wiring behind the panel with some ziplocks to keep it from moving around.It was kind of a pain to lie on my back and try to ziplock it in place, but now it doesnt rattle or move around.

i've got my heated seat button where the useless coin holder is. the security one is next to it and the last blank is being reserved for my independant foglight switch once i have more time and space to figure that out. plus, my unichip switches will probably go in the compartment where they are just shoved in currently, but will most likely mount them permanantly in there so it looks custom.

Yeah I just recently installed an aux input adaptor, and ran the stereo cables under the carpet to the useless coin holder below the e-brake. I mounted a jack there in one of the blank panels from the dash. I have a short pigtail which now plugs between my mp3 player and the jack.
