Can anyone tell me if the Window Control Switch Assembly from a 2016 IS 200T F-Sport can be used on a 2016 IS 300 base model? There are multiple options for upgrading the interior trim pieces on an F-Sport model but none for the lowly base model (aside from cheap eBay stickers vs more sophisticated and upscale offerings for F-Sport models from Elvin Wong, RR Racing, and others)!

When you remove yours, look at the back of it, if it's black, make sure you swap it with another black one.
If it's yellow, you have to swap it with another yellow one.
The front passenger door and both rear doors use the same switch panel, it's only the driver switch panel that's different.

Yellow = IS with memory seats

This is back of the memory seat one:

If you're talking about the cover, yes it can be swapped easily:

Yes, I'm talking about replacing both the switch assemblies and the trim covers. It is an entirely different switch assembly on the base model compared to same-year f-sport models.

Like I said, if the donor car has memory seats and you take that driver side window switch, it will not work on your car if you don't have memory seats.

The passenger and rear doors uses the same switch regardless of the memory seat function.
