post-13113-1159456313.jpgSomewhere I read that this is for controlling a garage door opener?

If this is true, where can I find out which garage door openers it works with and how to set it up?

The actual switch is already in the dash, but I don't know what's up with the circuit board shown (or even if I have it).

Thanks

The switch if for the power door locks on your car. Someone may have used it to do a garage door opener hack, but from the factory it locks/unlocks your doors.

Thanks Cassiebox, door locks, duh (newbie here..)

Orient Express, thanks for the link, the switch used in that post even looks like a garage door... FYI, the picture I used is from a kit being offered on eBay.

You know, I have space for switches on the left side of the radio/HVAC trim, might be a project in my future!
