Hi there does any one have photos of where the Oem heated seat switches go on the centre console on a 2 door e30.

Thanks

flip the center console over and you might see a template/shape of the switches to cut out ?

i'm not sure if this handbrake console is the same as the front one as they have the cut outs for switches marked on the underside .

I then put mine up here with the window switches -

If you flip over the consoles then you'll see the cut out for the switches.

I've seen that some cars mainly four doors and convertibles have the switches on a vertical configuration on the bit of the centre console next to the handbrake. Do two door cars have it on the left right on the great stick part of the console(where the windows switches would be on a four door car would be). If

Thanks

They will always be positioned on the centre console with the handbrake etc.
