here is a pic of the window park heater it's the 2nd button from the right. I couldn't get the white images on the button to show up that well.

Well I'll be. Dang if I didn't learn something new today about the LS. Thanks Jolinc01!
I dont have too much experience with freezing weather, although Florida did have some minor snow flurries last night, but what function does that "heater" do and how hot does it get. I am assuming its so your wiper doesnt get stuck to the windshield, but does it really work?

The heated wiper park gets warm enough to melt snow. I know, because thats what happened in my 2003 LS (have not experienced snow in the 06 LS yet). If you put your hand on the element, you can notice a definite warmth. The best part is that it melts ice particles that would otherwise stick to the windshield wiper blades and result in streaky wipes. Melting that ice from the blades helps keep the windshield cleaner as the wipers wipe.
Here's another tidbit of information. On the 00-02 LS the heated wiper rests come on automatically a just above freezing temperatures. Both outside mirrors are also heated, and come on with the wiper heaters. You can control them manually with the button as in jolinc01's picture (p.s. try using macro mode next time). Near freezing you will see the light on that button come on automatically. Rear window defrost is separate and is manually controlled.
On the 03-06 LS, the heated wiper rests still come on automatically near or below freezing but you have no manual control. There is no button, and no light to indicate they are on either. The heated mirrors do not come on automatically; instead they come on with the the rear window defrost, which is manually controlled. Maybe they had no space for the buttons after moving the heated/cooled seat buttons here.
