Default Blank switch next to heater buttons

Anyone know what the blank switch plate is next to the heater buttons? I just installed the cigarette lighter bulb under the armrest and I noticed there was another harness connector for something. I'm guessing it's for whatever goes in that switch spot.

thanks

It is for the Z's that are equipped with the ludicrous drive system. With the ludicrous drive system enabled transit between star systems takes much less time.

I thought that's the ejection button of the passenger seat?

I am not sure the true reason behind that blank button, maybe it's for some europe/asian models.

It adjusts the mode of the automatic gearbox aparently, from normal drive to Lazy, Gay, and can't drive a proper car.

Thank God I didn't accidentally pic the auto!!! There's nothing more embarrassing than cruzinn’ with your date and inadvertently hitting the GAY setting on the gearbox… Is that a pink light that come up on the dash??? I’d probably grab a little piece of black tape for that one… but that’s just me.
