MA61 Owners: What does that switch do?

Hey Im totally lost trying to guess what the function is of the black switch that's in front of the door lock switch of the same appearance.
The ones located on the centre console next to the handbrake.
I lifted the console and can see that this front switch is wired in so it must have some function... Perhaps some sort of Missile Arm function reminiscent of James Bond vehicles is what Im thinking, but I could be way off.
Also - What does the "MAIN" switch that is on the cruise control cluster section do?
Cheers.

that switch turns on your driving lights if your high beams are already on. You can bypass the "high beams must be on" part of that.
Cruise I have nfi about... good choice in cars tho!

Main enables/disables the cruise control function.
You can't set to cruise with main off.

Is this right Draven?
Does it have to be in 'highbeam' for the driving lights to come on?
Is this how Aust Delivered cars are wired?
With my XX, and its yellow fog lights, the switch works when the parkers are on. Doesnt have to be highbeam or even normal lights.
Must be a JDM thing

yes - this is the legal way for forward-facing spotlight/floods that are not low-beam headlights to work. In Oz.
i'd say that there is an ADR covering light placement, power, etc.
They're not true fog lamps as they don't direct the light down onto the road surface only.

Don't forget your car is JDM, CrUZsida, all Japanese Domestic cars require foglights. Here in Australia we are lucky not to be suffering from too much fog. Thus we have been fitted with (high light) driving lights.
Cheers.
