I am looking at modifying my gate remote button and install a semi-permanent button into my car's dash.

Anyone know what these buttons are called and where I can get them? I just need one.

I don't know noes_oh but will follow the thread and if it is an easy fix I might be tempted....

"A" is the ISG-off control (Auto-OFF), but I think noes_oh is asking what the actual cluster itself is called.

in the uk they are called rocker switches / up and down switches.

Only one of those 4 is actually a rocker switch. Possibly noes_oh needs a spring-loaded pushbutton for his gate control.

I think what they want is to get the cluster of switches (the way I read it... they don't have them - or has one... but it doesn't have all those switches/buttons) so that they can use an un-used one (in their model) as the switch for their door-remote (i.e. that switch/button takes the place of; or is connected in parallel with the original switch...) allowing them to hide the door-remote up/behind the dash.

Thanks everyone.  I think "rocker switch" has put me on the right path.  I might just pop into the local wreckers on the weekend to see if they have it.
