    My wife's OR 2019 has one, my OR 2021 doesn't. There is a switch plate with one switch.

    Used to keep my Altoids there.

    I really miss that little cubby - as well as the one in the bed. I may have to print a new panel for there and cut the bed... hmm. projects for the warmer months.

    The little cubbies in the bed of my 2017 are amazing. I like them most because in my old ram I put all of my tie downs under the seat and had easy access to them in the cab. Now they aren't in the actual cab of the truck and I can get to them right there.

    Yup, the bed cubby was perfect for straps. Only once or twice did I forget to grab them before loaded the bed to the point I couldn’t get to them.

    I use it for my house keys. I went with the ReArc brake controller so I still have the cubby.

    Yes it is. The lever is 3d printed and comes with MESO's kit. You take off the stock lever and replace with the longer one. It works great!

    I wish my 21 TRD OR had the cubby. I mounted the P3 right under all the switches ... sometimes I really bash my knee. Does Meso have something to get me out of this situation?

    Yes he does. You'll replace the entire trim panel with a custom design. It pops right in. For you, you could order it with the blanks on either side if the P3 to accommodate your traction control switch and still have a blank left over for future expansion.

    As you can see there is plenty of room on either side of the P3 for switches. I just chose not to order mine that way. (Probably should have!)

    How do you like the ReArc brake controller? Can you manually apply the brakes?

    I haven't used it yet. We're in the process of buying a travel trailer and wanted to install it before we got it.

    Does anyone know if the cubby panel (whole thing) from a 17-19 will fit on the 20 or 21? MECO makes them for my 20 but they’re like $150. Dealer has the 17-19 for $50

    Work in progress...
    Looking at the photo, it seems like the 2021 is a little bigger? I might take that back. Looking at the outside lines, they seem the same size?

    Might get one at the dealer just to see. Could probably return it. I prefer the brake controller there (and sticking out) as opposed to below. I’m tall and sit to close

    I used to use mine for my ridge wallet. Fit perfect. Just got a 2021 and was so upset to see it missing
