Toggle switches?

[DIRTY DEEDS]

I had a coworker ask me today if the toggle switches are standard on our 2015 mustangs or if you had to order a certain package to get them? I am not sure but just presumed they were a standard option. I did a little looking but unable to really look since work is busy for once LOL. Does any one know by chance?

Thanks,

Toggles are only on premium models.

comes with every premium, I believe. not standard, but basically standard.

This is one of the reasons I want a premium. The interior without the toggles looks so plain and has an overload of buttons. The premium with toggles looks a lot more clean and sporty.

I wonder if you can fit the the toggle switch unit into the base gt. It looks like it could be a direct swap

You might be able to physically fit the toggles in there, but I doubt the switches for the hazards, traction control, etc hook up the same or are even in the same area. So I think you'd lose functionality.

All the buttons of the base radio are the only reason I was kinda "meh" about the base package, but I've already heard from Crutchfield that an integration kit is probably not far off to fit a better looking aftermarket option....now whether or not the toggles would be, or could be, added is still unknown, a few switches are no reason to get leather and spend another $4k

No one knows this yet. If a GT and base owner were brave enough to take a look, we'd have a simple answer.

I'm sure the hazards, TC and Steering modes would be simple though to do, they are just on/off for 2 of them and the 3rd is a 3 push.

During my test drive, I set the toggles once then completely forgot about them. The base setup actually seems pretty perfect for me at least.

You have to remember that all buttons/switches in modern cars use resistance values to determine state. For instance when the hazards is pressed a certain resistance value is sent to the BCM/SJB which in turn activates a relay connected to the hazard lights. So as far as fitting toggles into a base car... As long as the toggles/push start button are on a separate circuit board then the climate controls (I am inclined to think that this is NOT the case) then it should be a simple swap. 3 of the toggles will work while the drive modes toggle would require the PCM to be re-flashed with AS Built data from a premium model. (Most likely)

I wonder the same with the PP dash in a non-PP car. :shrug:

As long as the wiring is there is should be as easy as buying a PP dash and installing it.

Dash and gauges.

For the price of a dash, you could just buy the PP upgrade and get everything probably.

^^ THIS

this is why i went base. i would set them, and forget them. they are nice, they are pretty, but.... overall, my eyeballs will be focused out the window, and they would be forgotten.
