    Does the blank button on the right side of the steering wheel do something in other models?

    I'd like to see a mod kit to make it an HV/EV toggle.

    I know in the gen2 it was used for te SKS remote. Not sure if the lower package gen3's do the same thing.

    I think it is for a lane centering feature available in some European countries.

    In all seriousness, it would be cool to be able to use this location for something. Ive been searching online for an oem button but I havent had any luck.

    I know it would be impossible to do but I really wish they made this a "Map" button like the old Gen2's. I liked that button.

    The lower right button is marked LKA for Lane Keep Assist on the 2010 V-AT. From Motor Trend:
