    What switches are we talking about that are better than CH4x4? I've not been impressed with the quality. They work well enough, but feel, well.... like they're from Alibaba seconds?

    The one from Caribe’s example is the fog switch for the FJ.
    $58 PT297-35070-AS Auxiliary Driving Light Switch
    PT297-35070-AS plus the connector that mates with it.

    Ah.... so OEM Toyota stuff pirated from other vehicles. Maybe I should have scoured the net to see if they have something for roof rack forward and rearward light bars. :)

    2110 (much smaller). Here’s what they look like on an OEM board.

    Definite “mod at your own risk” situation... running the hot air too high can melt stuff.

    No trouble at all. It's one thing to see it on "paper", another to have it in your hand. :rockband:

    Oh the drawings completely makes sense to me. I'm more referring to the fact that these symbols:

    Would make a hell of a switch panel :rofl:

    For the cargo light switch, does it matter if I have the bed light wired to it? Still just plug and play? How many switches can this power? Just hoping for 4.

    Nope! Still plug and play. And yes indeed it can power 4. High score right now is 7.

    So the positive would go to the switch and where does the ground go? Does that need daisy chained to each switch with the existing ground? I'm electrical dumb. Any cargo light harnesses available?

    Have a part number for those ice blue leds?

    Would be nice to have the switches match the oem dash lights.

    20190107_191515.jpg
    Been known to go a bit beyond simple plug and play. Blew the trace of the switch board. And being "resourceful" otherwise known as cheap.. I had to see what went wrong.. when the switch stopped working.

    A simple fix and a fe w minutes of time..

    20190107_210705.jpg

    Still working to this day.

    They are harvested from an interior LED bulb using hot air :D The axial lead LEDs are from an Amazon kit. The CH4x4 switches call for a 3 mm axial lead LED.
