By something missing i mean that the little square button next to the hazard button etc.its got a little circle hole in it and no cables i can see behind it.im thinkin the previous owner removed them for some reason.can somebody post a pic of what the button should look like?cheers

Where is the mirror switch in your car?

It sounds like you have the earlier style dashboard, the hazard switch being located next to the heated rear screen in a row of switches under the stereo. By 2001 these had been relocated to the lower storage slot (ahead of the gear shift) the electric mirror control took up two switch blanks and was in the centre. The removal of the row of switches under the stereo allowed the cupholder to be repositioned so that you could keep the cupholder even if you fitted a CD Player. The hazard lights switch moved to the top of the dashboard between the centre air vents.
