It's the tailgate window opening switch location I'm looking for, I can't say I've ever noticed one on other 75's, but then have never looked for one, no other switch aperture blanking plates about either.


If I can find out where the switch was fitted I can look for the cables in that location.


This model has the Trafficmaster smart nav fitted with the switch between the heated seat switches so at a pinch I could use this switch aperture.


This system gave directions by voice, if I push the button it tries to, but can't connect to the mobile phone system obviously because there is no current subscription, one quite neat feature was that it could be used to track the car if it was stolen.
The switch as I understood it was fitted below the bonnet release (as in the saloon) but fitted with a rectangular blanking plate. Some of those links in the search suggest looking for the wiring but I havent read into it further. If the wiring was actually present, I imagine it would be a simple question of fitting the switch and then activating it via T4 or TOAF.
