Hi!
I just got my USDM light dimmer switch which I'd love to add to my EDM civic eg.
Is that switch for the optional light between the sunvisors in the front or for the actual headliner light in the back?

No...it's for the cluster and climate controls lights.

correct, the optional map lights do not have a dimmer, and they do not come on when the doors open.

Sounds interesting, is there a DIY on how to do this?

What does it have to do with the coin holder? I do have the taurus coin/cupholer as well.

If you see where they put the coin holder...that where the USDM dimmer goes. So they swap it out for the coin holder and can't use the dimmer
