Ok, it's been two weeks and I still don't have my owners manual, so I have to bug you all with what is probably a dumb question... Under the cruise control on/off switch on the dash, there are two rubber buttons, one blank, and one with a little 'sun' or 'star' pattern on it. What do these buttons do? I'm looking for a pair of buttons to hook my openers up to...

EDIT - -
here's a couple of pics...



The don't seem to do anything at all, but at least one is wired to something... Odd, eh?

Maybe they're reset buttons for scheduled maintenance.
Just a guess. They are below the cruise control button, right?
Foolish me. I'm too lazy to look at my owners manual.

That's a Clifford alarm PlainView Coded Valet Switch. Instead of hiding a simple switch to put the alarm into valet mode, they have that switch with a programmable combination of presses on the two buttons.
