Default Coin holder blanking plates for v1-3 classics?

I could do with placing a couple of switches near the handbrake in the coin holder location but before I make my own blanking plates, did Subaru ever make them?

The switches? I'd imagine so, that's why the holes were there on JDM models.

might not be easy to get hold of, or the right sort of switch for what you want.

What are you trying to do?

I used the blanking plates to hold switches from Maplins similar to this - http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/slim-line-rocker-switch-n19cl

I just took the blanking plate into Maplins and found a switch that was a perfect fit (I had to file a hole in the back of the holder for the switch to sit in) - Looks OEM and is very discreet.

Switching ALS and LC/TC. Wanted to use the 2 coin holders under the handbrake on the version 1-3 classic. I have blanking on the dash but don't want the switches there.

If the blankings exist, where from? Also, I'm not at the car so can't try this, but do the dash switches fit the same size holes? Ie does a foglamp switch fit where the coin holder would be?

I've never seen blankings, just coin-holders.

I believe the switches are the same size. The one that's different, of course, is the mirror switch.

So MAYBE the upper blankings will fit??????

Could you not just pop out the fog light switch, disconnect from the loom and try it by the handbrake ?

That will tell you if a switch blank would be ok or if you need the coin holder.
