OEM switch for off-road lights?
Hi folks

I just installed a new set of PIAA 520 ATP lights. The switch leaves much to be desired. I read on this forum of OEM switches under $20 ( i would like illuminated, but not necessary). 3 local dealers want $78 for the switch. This is highway robbery. Where can I get a good fitted switch for a reasonable price?

You could try www.citytoyotaparts.com or ebay. Some dealers will also work deals too. OEM is going to be more expensive than aftermarket anyway because you are paying to match the interior of your vehicle.

I got my fog light switch from ebay for $20 plus shipping. Here is a link to one that is for sale right now.

Lightbulb Junk yard?
Have you considered checking junk yards? Seems like this would be something you could find at one...
