They're not buttons. It's markings that tell you the gear pattern.

camarofanatic · 01-08-2009, 08:58 AM

are you sure bc i saw it on the automatic version in another picture.....tht would make sense tho

Xanthos · 01-08-2009, 08:59 AM

That would make sense.

When I blew-up the pic you can see it is the shift pattern. Reverse far left and up like the old 4 speeds. R 1 3 5

Sweet - its a good place for a shift pattern. I hate when they put it on the ball - if you swap the knob and then a buddy borrows the car, what happens if he hits reverse thinking its first (while stopped) and creams your car?

As a rule most console cars print shift pattern on the console. Non-console cars print the shift pattern on the shifter ball.

Late again. You guys are fast!

Must not be an SS. The SS pattern has reverse top right.

Well, I've only owned three cars, and only two were manual. My 86 IROC had the pattern printed on the console, my Hyundai is on the shifter. I liked the console one better.
