Overhead Switch Panel

2018 DCSB OR

Who makes and or/sell the over head switch panel replacement that makes it so I can cleanly add two stock Tacoma switches for lights to my overhead panel next to my diff lock switch and the TC-Off switch? Still blows my mind that they didn't just put two extra blanks there from the factory but oh well.

 

@mesojdm

 

I made one for the overhead but it is a 6 button and not for sunroof models. I will be making one that will though

 

I’d be interested in a 2018 Sport version.

 

Im looking for this. Pics?

 

Forum member makes this, I have them for my arb compressor and locker. The black is not a great match for oem but you dont really notice it unless you look up a lot. Overall happy. The install for the middle two is very easy (under 2 minutes total) its easy until you add the third blank on the passenger side.

Here’s the 6 switch

I just received two overhead switch panels from Shapeways. One is the center (2 switches) and one is the passenger (1 switch). Now I just need to figure out how to pull the stock panels without breaking anything.

 

Try here. I believe the overhead console just pulls down if I remember correctly.

Did Meso ever end up making a roof switch panel that accommodates sos and sunroof?

 

I have two switches up there from the factory and bought the Meso part to add a 3rd but could not get it to fit into the overhead console. In my case if you enlarge the opening between sunroof and SOS switches for the new piece to fit, you mangle up the side of the sunroof switch. Costly mistake for me, I had to buy a whole new console as the switches are integral and not available separately.

Could be my error. Could be that this part isn't for use if you have SOS and sunroof. I haven't been able to find a video or instructions for those of us that do. I can confirm that our console is structurally different than those without these two items. If anyone knows of someone that has done a successful swap of that switch panel, I'd be very interested to learn more.

 

Anyone know if (or able to confirm that) a three (3) switch overhead panel from @MESO can fit between the SOS and sunroof controls? TIA

 

I managed to get the MESO 3 switch in there but it wasn't pretty. I had to cut a lot more than I was expecting including removing the internal plastic that is between the sunroof controls and the switches. I also had to trim the MESO panel. I was careful, taped everything and took my time but i still ended up with some minor cosmetic damage. It can be done, but don't expect it to be plug and play or look perfect. You will have to cut a fair amount of plastic and if you aren't careful you could destroy your sunroof switches and have to replace the whole thing.

 

@The Pirate thanks for that information! It looked possible but I figured it'd be a squeeze. Either way I've gotta wait for @MESO to re-open orders on custom made trim pieces, I waited to long and the order period closed but knowing this I think I'll just be going for a 2 switch option. Appreciate it!
