The cluster of electric window switches on the driver's door on my 59-plate S (going tomorrow in part-ex for a new GS Premium) are a much lesser quality than was on my 57 Plate XS.

They are much less tactile, thinner & rougher than the soft feel switches that I recall originally.

I put this down to cheaper kit on a lower spec model but didn't consider that maybe the switches had been changed on all models. I don't recall from my time in the showroom if the new car has the original or the cheapos fitted.

Can anyone shed any light? Was it an across the range change sometime between 57 and 59 plates?

I'll answer my own question having just collecting my new 13MY. They're back to the quality switches, so the rough/cheaper ones were obviously just on the 'S'.
