    the illumination is clear but I'm sure you could paint the back side of them for different color

    Appreciate the pic. This will go really well with the chrome/metal OEM accents in my 2013 too. And the aluminum Hilux switch ring

    No problem. I figured for $8 a set, it was worth a try.

    That looks great, more modern than the stock ones. Does it fill the hole well or are the new knobs smaller? Can't really tell from the pic.

    im thinking a transparent hobby paint on the inside will allow color change fairly easilly. The kicker is the brightness of these shitty stock bulbs in the A/C control.
    Im ordering 2 sets to experiment

    The fitment within the hole well is pretty good. The only thing I noticed about the knobs is they allow for a little lateral movement. The stock knobs have a metal insert, but these do not. I attempted to remove the inserts from the stock knobs, but I could not get them out without damaging the knobs. It doesn't really bother me, but I'll probably end up getting some used knobs somewhere and do what I can to get the inserts out and put them in the new knobs.

    those look really good with the newer interiors. I might have to change mine out now.

    If you can find some factory knobs let me know cause I have yet to find some. only thing I can find is a whole a/c controll panel. I wish toyota would put some into production like they did with the older tundras

    That's funny I've always wanted to update the climate control knobs but has been something on the back burner. This looks like a pretty decent option, not very expensive so if a better option pops up later it doesn't hurt to much to change them out.

    I've hunted for about a year now. these aliexpress ones are about it for after market. I would think there would be a bigger variety with how many of them brake in half. maybe someone with the capabilities sees this thread and can produce some better fitting ones someday soon.

    That's too bad. I've seen some genuine Toyota knobs for sale on ebay for the Hilux, but they aren't as nice as these aftermarket ones. I ordered a set of these last night so I'll be taking a good look once they arrive. Sure it won't be too hard to get rid of any lateral movement.

    the slight movement is cured by the little inserts that come off the original ones

    Not at all. Just pulled the old knobs off and pushed the news ones on. Done.
