thats an aftermarket item. Go under the dash and find out where it goes. You car does not has hicas, because a big sticker would be there with the word hicas and a light that goes on if there are any problems with it.

Its just an aftermarket toggle switch. It COULD HAVE BEEN....what evry one else said or theres also a possibility that it was an ignition kill switch or an amplifier toggle switch.

or... trace the wires out and find out where it goes. then you'll know for sure, no guessing.

So, how to I get that switch out of there. i've tried getting it out, but it doesn't budge. I looked under the dash, but the bottom part, the part that wraps under the steering wheel area blocks the view of anything there.
