Has anyone put an overhead console in your 1st Gen?

Hey fellows..
Just playing around with the idea...has anyone taken a overhead console out of a 4 Runner or something similar and put it in your truck? How hard would it be to attempt this?

thanks,

So, Have you done it? I'd was thinking about doing the same thing.

 

I just barely finished installing a 2000 4runner overhead console in my 2003 tacoma

 

Erm



@Phessor

I think?

 

Colors aren't quite the same but I'll forget about that eventually

 

There was some guys on TTORA that did overhead consoles I think. One guy used a suburban overhead console.

 

I have an Outback console in my Tacoma.

 

Now that's a console!!

 

How hard was this? I’d like to do this for the glasses.

 

I've seen people use the Chevy overheads like this

 

That's nice! Not too bulky either... do happen to know what Chevy that came out of?

 

looks like late 90s suburban/tahoe

Only took 10 years to answer the guy's question, lol

 

I didn’t even notice

 

I had to hack down the mirror bracket for the new map light to fit over it. The Pos wire going to the stock map light was actually able to plug directly into the 4runner lights but I did have to add a ground wire to complete the circuit.

 

Great write up! And really looks good .going try it too . Question does the hole you cut had to be that big? Or just cutting a hole so the light switches fit in. Also did you have modify the box to make it flush Mount? Thanks
