What is the slits just to the left of the HUD controls? Is that where the chimes come from? Shown in pic. I want to install my push button start there maybe, just not sure if I can block the slits or cut them out.

Some GT's came with HUD.
I can't see your pic but if they are what I am thinking of then the slits are just slits, their is nothing behind them.

All GP's come with the same instrument panels so they all have that slit. And I also thought that that was where the chimes come from.

My question is, Do you all think that is a good location for the push button start?

I thought it to be a temp sensor for the climate control on the '97-'00. I might be wrong if it's on your 2002..... I'm almost sure I've seen an air tube going to that location with the dash apart.

Is there a way to see what temperature that sensor is reading? My auto climate control does a terrible job.

Yes, I replaced that sensor at the start of summer, external temperature looks good.
