I have a 95 and I have no switches below or around the hatch release button. It must be for some accessory. Maybe for an alarm or some other electronic equipment. Let us know what it is when you find out.

I think that there were originally wires for a live circuit left under the console for the owner to rig up something useful of his choice. CB, etc
So no telling what the original owner set it up for ..... might well be an ejection seat

Now I want to know what it is. Besides the rear window button, there should not be another one (factory).
Go outside and turn it, make sure your wife or son is making a video for us.

Its actually a very good idea, saves wear and tear on the antenna, and since I just listen to sat radio who needs the antenna lol. I came to this conclusion after my works security gate arm malfunctioned and dynamically seperated my antenna from the rear of my car before I could safely pass. Needless to say the company bought me a new antenna and motor and a power down toggle switch. Hell of a way to get one although, The antenna pretty much stays down always now. I placed my toggle on the back side of the rear spare top mount insert directly behind the drivers seat. You would never know it was there.

That's where I put my antenna control switch, too. Works great, and it's good to have it handy if you get into a weak reception area. Flip the switch and the antenna goes all the way up! I usually have my antenna up only about one foot.

Goldcylon, you might need a tune-up. You must have the slowest Corvette in town. What happens to the guy with the Hummer and the CB whip antenna?
