Not 100% sure if that was directed to me but I wasn't talking to you, I was talking to poskwally.

Also in case that was for me do you need help finding that ignore button? Or did you just get busy and forgot?

Here's what you do incase you don't know:

1. Click on my profile name.
2. Click View public profile.
3. Click User list (under profile name)
4. Click Add to Ignore List
5. Confirm action.

You're welcome, and have a nice day!

Yeah, now that I see that the buttons are not integrated into the stereo, I'm not going to worry too much about it anymore. It wouldn't make sense for Advent to supply their own button. Thanks for the pic.

A switch is any device that changes the state of something, can be to energize or de energize a circuit, can be your cable router, can be a branch from a willow tree for when your attitude needed changing when you were a kid.




Switch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


This has been the useless but informative message of the day, now no one should be confused what a switch is.




.
I'm sorry, thanks for such informative and value added material, even if you think it's useless. I can guess that everyone on this thread is much more informed on the imperative issue of the difference between a switch and a button. It's always a good thing to learn about important issues like this on internet threads from experts like you and wikipedia. You are my hero!

You got to remember bud, I've got a small brain and I don't comprehend very well. Since I've got such a miniscule brain I automatically take anything I don't understand as an insult, and since my brain is so infantile your vailed insults are not as effectively on me because I truely don't understand.

Once again since you stated you wished to ignore me I refer you to my previous post to you in getting that accomplished.

Have a great day and as always I'm glad to help!

I hope you all can understand that I can't post pricing online or I'll run into some major issues with my dealer agreement, but let's just say your speculation is fairly accurate...

I don't think I can make it any clearer.

The way that Advent usually does this operation is they require you to swap out the existing switchgear from the OE panel to the one supplied with the deck, so whatever is there from the factory stays.

Although I don't know FOR CERTAIN that this is the case on the 1502, it would add a whole new order of complexity to the manufacturing of this deck if they took on the reproduction of all the switches and buttons that are supplied on all of these trucks - I don't see it happening...

Sounds like the best unofficial confirmation we could get. If that's how they did it in the past, I suspect it would be the same way with this unit. Thanks for the info.

You're right, and I'm sorry if I didn't clarifiy that this is clearly my speculation based on a rough estimate of how much all of the other models are going for. I don't have any 100% confirmation on any prices for anything.... it is seriously my best guess. Thanks for reminding me, I'll go in and edit my previous post so there is no confusion.

Thanks again Walt

Do you think it will be the same for the enviromental controls down below, I don't have the rear window defroster but I have the side mirror defroster, and I noticed the difference in the picture.
