    What goes here

    Well, I am curious about the 2 blank spots on the dashboard next to the mirror switch and the car with squiggly lines under it switch! Anyone have an idea as to what options would be here! I would post a photo but I have no clue how to do that

    One was used for dealer installed bluetooth, the other maybe a shut off for the auto start/stop feature we don't have? I may be wrong about the later. Likely just features for other markets.

    It's a 4 of 5 positions rotation knob. If you change the position, the headlights are levelled up or down. I think electrical.

    Why does the Netherlands get all the cool features like 1.0, AS&G, rear fog lights, auto windshield wipers, auto lights, daytime lights, and headlight level adjusters making me jealous... I bet the 2020 will even be self driving in the Neatherlands.

    Headlight level adjusters became mandatory in Europe at least 25 years or so ago.

    Yet over here they would prefer to lock down the headlight adjustments so us dumb*ss end users won't end up blinding, say, emergency services.

    In European mandatory vehicle ispections, they will always set the headlight beam fully upwards by means of the controls inside the unladen car, then measure to confirm the beam has correct height.
    Starting out from the correct beam height with an unladen car, you can only adjust the beam further downwards. That should prevent anyone from blinding others, which why it became mandatory in all new cars. I'm not so sure since when, but probably since the mid 80's.
