   Well, no, what the pedals do is a standard feature that can not be   
   changed :-)   
      
   However, where the light switch is, that's different. Some cars control   
   an absurdly large number of things with a single knob stick from the   
   steering wheel. And the next year same model may do it differently.   
      
   Then some write horrible instruction books: here you can find a single   
   book "explaining" a dozen different models, so finding the exact   
   instructions for your case can be horribly difficult. I had to go to the   
   dealer several times and ask.
