Stock-like Auxliliary Switch Panel

[Devrincs]

If you remove the trim/switch panel just below the A/C controls and the Dvr's side lower dash panel, Dvr's side center knee bolster, 4WD knob panel. You can fish wires from the center console area into the lower dash area. I have about 12 total run through that area.

EOD guy - I’ve read the two center console and instrument documents, but not seeing the driver side pass through from the engine bay to the battery. I have my car in with a specialist and between us we’re trying to locate that grommet. Are there any suggestions you can give us please?

Where did you get the actual buttons? I got a new light switch panel with all the openings but can’t find the buttons themselves.
Thanks!

Here are two options linked earlier in this thread:

Sure, you can get some here if you want something custom or you can also snag some on Ebay that are more generic here: LED Light Bar Dashboard Dash Push Button Switch For Toyota Camry RAV4 Corolla | eBay

CH4x4 Industries make many "cube" style switches that fit. For a little extra they will even do a custom image.

This is amazing. Will buy over on the Bay when my mod account replenishes next month. Good work.

I got mine at CH 4x4 only place I could find with white LEDs to match OEM.

Sorry to bring an old thread back to life but this is the closest match I've ever seen to the OEM switches. I just ordered the OEM AUX 1-3 but seriously digging this. In person, is this a 10/10 match or will someone with uncontrollable OCD find a reason to wish they had the OEM switches... asking for a friend.

Actually the 7 switch panel from 300mods look much better. The current version does have to be modified to fit properly on US models.

Here's the link on how I modified the switch panel......

7 gang switch panel from 300mods (Australia)

Recently ordered, received, modified and installed the 7 gang switch panel....... What a journey! The price was extremely reasonable, so I ordered one and waited patiently for it to arrive. A few weeks later the representative from FedEx shipping called, got my email address and sent the...

I added a door to cover a switch .......

Whoa, that does look great. Your install write up is fantastic. Is this something a normal human can tackle though? I’m comfortable with wiring and some basic 3d printing but sure I’m capable of that.

The mod can be accomplished with ordinary hand tools and a Dremel tool/drill. A vice would be faster and easier to squish the new metal tab, but a hammer would work just as well. The critical part is the length of the tabs. Careful measurement of the tabs before you start cutting anything is extremely helpful! Basically the end result ......... you're cutting the orig longer tab to the exact length of the shorter tab and lengthen the orig short tab to the exact length of the longer tab.

Sorry been gone off grid to Cruise Moab, if your asking about the switches. I did wire in a dimmer and disassembled the switch face to install some green overlays (overhead projector filters) to match the OEM look. Otherwise they are brighter and the LED to indicate the switch is on is white vs what you see in the photo.

I just checked for this on ebay and it is no longer available. Is there anything matching this that is currently available for purchase, or anything similar to it on the market?
