OEM Light Swiches

[phillyd2]

By searching I found two that may work in my 2011 Limited:

Susquehanna MotorSports - Auto Performance Product

and

Amazon.com: Daystar KU80014 20 Amp Red Light Rocker Switch Kit: Automotive

1. Can you guys confirm that these will fit 5th Gen
2. Any other options for a more OEM look?

The daystar fit, but require some slight trimming with a dremmel. I have 3 daystars installed and have no complaints.

Here is OEM toyota switch dont remember for witch model, older tundra or tacoma. Got it from dealer, i believe paid $10-$15. Could of look better if i did better trimming. Works perfect for my HID’s no overheating.

it's from the "other" forum...... but I used the first switch for my driving lights.

According to my dealer there are no Push Button type OEM switches available for the 5th gen so I'll be going with the OEM rocker type as used by Ryan and 4everunner.

Question for those who have used the same switch - did you trim the switch or the existing hole? Looks like the switch will fit side to side but the length is too big (top and bottem) - is this correct?

I plan on installing in the exact same postion as Ryan

I installed a fresh bank of Contura (OTRATTW) switches. very happy with them. Used one stock location (the blue switch) which needs trimming to adjust the height.

Sweet set up Okki. But I'm still in the baby steps stage.

I trimmed the hole.

Trimmed the hole a little. Not too bad. There was some bits in the back to hold the OEM switch, so that had to be removed.

whether it is a small hole or a big hole... once you take a dremmel to your dashboard, things will never be the same; you will have entered that one-way street that is called "modification" :lol:

When I wrote up my wishlist for everything that takes switches, it made more sense to install a whole new bank. If you only plan to add a single set of lights, using a stock location may make more sense. Just keep in mind that once you dremmel out the hold to make the switch fit, you likely can't fit a plate anymore to cover it up because of the differences in how the blank plates fit (or order one that matches the profile of the switch you bought.)

You'll be there in a few baby steps Phillyd2... the steps happen faster than you think
