Trying to find switches that will fit In stock opening??

[the_josh]

Does anyone know where I can find some rocker style switches that will fit in stick location with minimal fit issues?? I looking for illuminated switches for my piaa lights, procomp back up floods and air compressor

I dunno about a rocker switch, but I know the FJ Cruiser has a switch made for fog lights that you can put in there.

You could probably find the part number and order it.

The FJ switches are sweet but if you want just a run of the mill lit toggle. I bought mine from the stealership, $13 a switch but they fit the stock locations. The only down side is I did have to do some minor trimming for them to fit snuggly. If I could do it over again I would go with the FJ switches.

You could use a switch like this. The site says it is for Scion TC's, however I know a few guys that have used this switch for other things in their T4R's.

They have them with and w/o LED's in them as well.

You can also order the AUX Fog switch for the FJ from here . It has the four wire harness included for about $80.

While the FJ and 4Runner push switches will look the most OEM, theyre pretty expensive. Ive found them on ebay for ~$40, but to control your 3 things thats still $120 just in switches! Twice as much if youre paying the $80 each retail.

I think R8RRunner's find is the best so far, the scion switches will still look very stock and I think many people would prefer a rocker switch. They also mention having amber as an LED color, so it could match the interior lighting well.

The website says "does not fit 03+" 4runner, but if you look below that in the reviews, someone mentions that it fits 03+ 4runner with minor shaving.

From my understanding the switch is what you have to shave if you are placing them on the left of the steering wheel. I couldn't tell you what you might have to do if you are placing them in one of the blanks in the center console. Could be wrong since I have actually used this switch myself but they seem like a good fit with minor tweaking.

I actually have the fj switches controlling my piaa's. yes, they are pricey compared to others. But they do go in with no modification and look stock. backlit with on indicator.

If you go this route, here is the part number:
PT297-35070-AS

If you go with the OEM toggle, they fit the dash slot next to the steering wheel without a problem. Shaving must be done to the center console SLOT for the switch to fit. Not much is required I just trimmed a little at a time with a pocket knife until the switch fit snuggly.

EDIT: What is posted above for the Scion is the exact switch I bought from the stealership for the same price. The only difference is the color of the toggle light. Mine are orange so they match the dash's backlight.

Does anyone know if the switch that MrTom posted above fits our cutouts without modifying?

 

[R8RRunner]

I believe, but don't quote me on it, they need the same type of minor trimming that the Scion switches do.

I saw a post on another forum that I can't seem to find now about them but hopefully MrTom will fill us in if they are using them.

I tried this site, but when I try to pay via PayPal, it states that they are unable to accept payment? I've tried to e-mail them, but so far, I have no responses.

I found some marine switches on e-Bay that I might try. I'm looking for two switches, one for a spare location on the dash for the DRL mod, and one for the center console for a back up camera.

Any other places that people have used for switches?

Thanks

These should work OK. 4Wheel Parts or Quadratech.com has them. They have them in a few colors. The JK 4 switch holder could be usefull too.
