Interior Switches

I'd like to add a couple of switches in my car and use the stock positions. Right now there are three spare blanks. Does anyone know what switch fits and the function.

Right side of steering wheel - cruise control (saw in a picture)
Center console left - ?
Center console center - ?
Center console right - rear defroster (got that one)

One of the center console switches is for fog lamps when equipped. I believe the other one is for headlamp washers that Canadian cars have, but I may be wrong.

Baja is correct. Rear defroster and fogs are common. You can usually buy a surplus foglight switch in the parts for sale section to use for whatever. Or buy a switch and mount it into the blank, in my case for the fan mod.

My FD has headlamp washers (canadian) but i don't know how to turn them on. It would be travesty to drive the car in conditions where you needed them.

Yeah, but it gives it that authentic CDM (Canadian Domestic Market) look. Worth mad props at the shows.

Ah, that makes sense.

I don't drive at night, because i can't get my High Beams to turn off (they'er always on, once you do the first have turn to get the interior lights on, must be short in the handle??),

so i don't want to get light in peoples faces.
