Looking for a specific switch

[gadgetguy1288]

I'm looking to install a set of Rigid flush LED's in the rear of my 4runner, but my problem is finding the type of switch that I'm looking for.

I want to find a 3 way rocker switch that matches the factory switches(my Tundra had several that were factory switches, but I think they were a wider switch than the 4runner uses)

I want to hook up the lights so that the center position they come on with the reverse lights, one way they are off completely, and the other way they are on.

Anyone know of a rocker switch like that that matches the factory switches?

Air On Board or Slee switches match the look of the factory switch. You're looking for a 3 position double position double throw switch- not sure if AOB or Slee makes these but that switch config will work with what you're trying to accomplish.

DPDT will be ON(function 1)-OFF-ON(function 2). You can wire the first pole up in line with the regular brake light and the load- this will turn on the light when the switch is in this position and the brake switch activated. Off (center) will kill the circuit. The second pole you can wire between 12V (hot or switched of your choosing) and the load- this will turn on the light automatically when the switch is in the 3rd position.

Hope that helps.

Hi gadgetguy,

Since AOB may NOT make a three-way switch to fit gen-5 4Runners, you may need to use two AOB switches to achieve the task: Switch 1 can turn on your LED Bar, Switch 2 will Break your reverse lights when in the off position, and Both Switches on will bring the LED and Rev lights on together... think about it and lets us know what you think. Their website is OFF-LINE right now; don't know why: TOYOTA 4RUNNER Replacement Switches -Air On Board

Best to you,

rig

EDIT: AOB's website is back online now so my link should work!

I am also in the lookout for a switch like this. A double throw that fits in the factory spot. They make ones that other than e but that are larger. I'm looking for them and everyone will know if/when I find them.
