Nitrous? Or Kill Switch/button? My Buddy Used To Have A Button He Had To Press To Start His Car Becuase The Ignition Was All Messed Up.

its most likely a valet button for the alarm. you press it after you shut the car off so the alarm doesnt arm. the light for the alarm(if equipped) will turn solid or shut off

Its a passenger ejection button, available on the t-top cars. Only works if the key is in the "on" position...

This would be my guess. My LT1 had one similar when I bought it.

wouldnt that be more like a keypad?



i knew a guy when i lived in fla that had an exact copy of that keypad on his dash for his car alarm (he had to type a specific code in to deactivate it) and i always would ask him what year he was going back to


or possibly its a cheap alternative to this?



(i couldnt find any bigger pics but thats the super pursuit mode button, lol)
