    Should be the right size. Measures 33.15 x 22.5. Keep in mind that there will be a lip behind the faceplate. so the hole is actually smaller than what you are measuring

    Maybe I'm missing something, but there is nothing but air behind the square pieces where the fog lights should go. I can remove the square pieces, but no pieces like you show on my 2016 Tacoma SR.

    I added in a 30" LED bar on our 2016 and bought the Arsenal Offroad light switch instead of the cheap stick-on button switch sent with my wire kit. It is a smidge small, but it snaps right in the blank slot nice and secure.

    Ya i bought mine from the same buyer after seeing your picture. But I had to get the bigger size to replace the "clutch cancel" spot because I have the 400w AC plug button

    Corey,
    Sorry I'm so lame in getting back to you so late.
    Yeah, I measured my switches and yes they are to small for your opening. I'm sorry I didn't notice you had a new 2016 (Sweet!).
    Anyway, When I first started looking for switches I came across OTRATTW and ordered 1 for possible fit. The switches are too wide for my 2015 stock openings and the install instructions indicated that I had to widen the stock openings. I didn't want to do that so I went with AOB.
    Anyway, OTRATTW switches are measured in inches, and I do not know how to convert to mm. They might have something for you. Here you go: http://www.otrattw.net/CONTURA-V-LED-LIGHT-BAR-LOWER-LED-INDEPENDENT-V1D1JBBB-PZC12-5LB.html

    I guess I'm too lazy to pull the dash apart.
    It worked, no damage.
    Now I just need an oem switch to fit.

    As long as it works that's great. It only takes maybe 5 mins to get the dash apart tho.

    I got the rocker plate off, the cowl tree cover off and 3 screws out. The dash wasn't wanting to pull off so easy.
    I didn't want to push my luck.

    Where can I find a switch to fit that hole?
    The one that came with the kit was too big.
    Is for a couple of cube lights.
    Thanks!

    Any oem fog light will work. I believe you can get a switch from offroad arsenal! And the dash will pull off you don't have to be afraid of breaking anything you won't. The clips pop and sould like they are breaking but they won't break!

    The dash was easy to pull off, after the three screws just pull lightly from bottom to top. I also need a switch to fit that hole. Did you find one?FullSizeRender 7.jpg
