Default generic center console switch?

Dooes anyone know if Porsche do a generic center console switch to match the others (ie sunroof, door lock etc). I want to run my fuel pump off a switch and want it to look factory.

Use a mirror select switch, pins 2 and 5 work on/off.

Do you think the central door lock switch will work? It looks less specific than the window selector switch...

Couldn't you just find any of the center switches and just rub a little on the picture which should come off? Hell, none of my center switches have pictures left, they have all been rubbed off....i just push buttons until something happens that i want to. I try to switch the mirrors and my sunroof opens

Hey NZ, out of curiosity, why do you want to run your fuel pump off of a switch? Security feature?

Hi,

I used a spare foglight switch (there is a spare space next to the factory supplied switch) to use as an on-off switch for my AFM display on the A pillar.

Looks stock and you can take the foglight decal off by using Amourall - yep the Amourall kills the glue. It is also lit as a bonus.

My cab has an already plain switch in there. I think it was to disable the ultrasonic sensor on the alarm. No idea what the wiring behind it is like since I've had no reason to take it out, sorry.
