oh i know IJ, the whole metric system joke for me goes all the way back to High school, our soccer coach was an aussie, and he used to tell us go a certain amount of meters here..or there....and when we would loose/do it wrong we just blamed it on the damn metric system.

heh..alot funnier in person.

Haha this has turned into the "What's this interior button do?" Thread...I love the ATM idea though. I thought I remembered seeing a Turbo Timer switch labeled "low-high" or something like that on a JDM model MKIII in one of the spaces we have the COIN plate?

It's possible.

Toyota offered OEM-style Turbo timers (actually manufactured by someone else, but looks OEM), I've never seen one that fits the MKIII before, mainly because the MKIII has unique switch sizes.

Toyota has some standard cutout sizes that they like to use, I know of a Turbo Timer for sale right now that fits into one of those (it would fit perfectly in my AE86 if it was turbo, haha), it was originally sold as an accessory for the SW20 MR2 in Japan, and it has 3 switch positions, 1 MIN, 3 MIN, and off (which is the center position, without 1 or 3 selected).

Looks pretty nice. They may have offered one for the MKIII at some point.

Yup that's it...I saw a 90 with it between the Foglight and rear defogger buttons. Thanks I thought I might have been imagining it.
