hrmm, how "furry"? i never bothered to really look at other people's glove boxes. mine has a thin layer of a soft black lining. is the lever where the glovebox door shuts on it? i know there's a light for the glovebox. take some pics??

 

yes that would be the light for the glove box. i have heard of kill switches in the glove though, but if you noticed that your glove box had a lift, that would then be the switch.

 

hmm.. yea its not that furry now. hahaa. its just furry compare to the orginal one. yea its just a soft black lining or some sort.. but yea. on the side of the lid.there is a kill switch i saw.. but its onthe inside.. onthe left side.. hmm..maybe i'll just take some pictures. cause as you all can see! im not very good at explain things. haha.. but hmm.. still curious what that is. and what it does... i was thinking of a kill switch and a on switch, but it has one already stock with it when opened and closed.. so hmm....

 

if it were me, it would be an "on/off" switch for electrical current. whenever someone tries to jack the stereo, *ZAP!* okay, thats a pipe dream, but it'd be cool.
i imagine its not easy to trace where the wires are going, but that would help. or maybe trial and error... if it does anything, i'd imagine it'd be relatively simple to play detective.

 

hahaaa.. yea man!.. kOol idea there love that! one! hahaa.. that !*ZAP*! idea/theory! lols... but yea. i guess i'll just have to play detective.. and i'll post back up if i can find what that dAng* thing is for.. thanks though guys!..

 

base models and most S5 models got the plastic unlined glove box, while the upper market models all got the felt lined gove box.

Do you mean the switch that is for the glove box light to come on when the parking lights are on?
