    switch panel.jpg I have a Access Cab so no power sliding window. I want to use that spot on the panel to install a switch for my spot lights. I haven't had the panel off in awhile so does anybody know if I can mount a vertical switch (same size as the Door Opener switch) in that position? I know I can get a plate for the cubby above but I'd like to fill the blank area on the panel for now. Thanks

    Check out the thread I made:
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...e-driver-side-cubby-with-switch-panel.532943/

    Maybe something there will give you an idea since it has pictures on what is behind the trim.

    I'll pop the panel out later and see what's behind it in the area. Otherwise I'll get the plate to cover the cubby.

    There is plenty of room behind that blank section. Getting a clean rectangle hole cut is another story.

    Many
    I have a switch panel for sale, as well as a number of switches. I live just a bit away from you if you are interested. I will attach the image of the switch panel I have.

    Ooooh! More goodies. So this is a 4 holer instead of replacing the cubby?
