      This cluster upgrade has been brought up. If you add the button you would also be able to cycle through a few of the functions.

      Amazing that GM would be so "cheap" but still include it in the build.

      I've parallel two buttons with wire and it works. Now I can switch the modes with one button.

      I didn't add the button. All buttons are on the board from factory. First button is the one we all using, and second is covered by plastic (like lcd screen). I've paralleled buttons with wire. It is not an easy task, because the buttons pads are on the over side of the board and to get there you need to unsolder the screen. Now by pressing first button dashboard thinks that I'm pressing both at the same time and changes the modes. For modes description google for pontiac g3 wave manual. If you want ambient temp on the screen you need to trace wires from green connector pin26 and connect NTC Thermistor.

      Sorry did'n have a picture, but i found this http://www.aveoforum.com/forum/f81/a...44/index5.html
