Lightbulb 3 buttons on the roof centre ? what the heck

I have just bough a dashing 2006 coupe manual and it has a set of small buttons (3 of them) next to the roof light console - I have tried pushing them... but cant work out what they do... any ideas ?

Homelink, you can program it to open your garage or gate.

NOOO don't crack it or it will lose value, gently pry it open and peek in on an angle.

To plead my case - It doesn't arrive until next week and I was asking the question based upon a test drive...

Does that redeem me ?

Also, while your driving if you press and hold down all 3 at the same time it will make your car faster. But you have to keep holding them down.

OK, you're pardoned, but don't do it again.

Damn - we knew it! Ten more HP - that's where they hid it! Does make shifting tough for those of you with the manual though.

Since you are in the UK I don't think you'll ever get them to do anything. It has been discussed here before that the UK uses a different frequency for garage door openers than the US uses, so the Homelink won't work for you. I guess there's always a chance that they have updated the system in the car for later model years, but I doubt it.

Must be because of the metric radio receivers used the UK.

I'm a UK owner and it works fine with my garage door!

I heard that pressing all three at the same time engages the flux capacitor ?

Putting a NOS sticker on your car ads 13.5 horsepower... I know that for a fact, I did it on my FORD FIESTA!

I have reprogrammed one of the buttons on my roof console to engage the Nitrous.

I'm going to have like the most random things ever in my xfire. Like one button engages the popcorn machine and the other one engages and turns on my blender or juicer in the car. SO SO SWEET.
