    Hey guys I have a 2013 Tacoma sr5.
    I purchased the Atoto A6 performance kit off of Amazon, it was suppose to include everything needed to do the install, wiring harness & dash install kit.
    After pulling my factory radio out & started assembling everything I noticed that the clock/hazard light button did not fit onto the new dash kit. The screw holes do not line up at all !
    Is there any difference in the models from 2005-2011 & 2012 on ?
    According to the Amazon page it's designed to fit 2005-2015.
    I emailed them 4 days ago about the issue they just now answered me back and told me to send them pictures of the area so they can update the kit which does nothing to help me....
    What can I do now?? Is there any other dash kit that will work with this model radio ? I was under the impression all the other kits on the market are designed to fit the standard 7inch unit (mine is 9")
    Should I just exchange it for something else like a joying etc..?

    I believe the openings were a little off also.
    The dash panel fit into the space where the old dash panel came put of fine the tabs even lined up at the top but since the bottom tabs that hold the panel in place are made onto the clock/hazard button assembly I couldn't use it because they wouldn't mount up correctly.....

    The screw holes weren't even close you could tell it was for something totally different.

    Is there a difference in the mounting locations of the years models ?

    I didn't take any pictures but I will pull it back apart tonight and take some for you guys and them.

    Crutchfield leads me to believe 2012+ are different.
    As they have 2 different kits for those years.

    Agree. I just had a 6.7" head unit installed in my 2011. I don't see any way a 9" unit could fit in my truck. I could be wrong...

    The 9" fits but there is a difference in bezel's. 2005-2010 and then there's 2011-2012
    As for the the hazards switch I had to modify mine and use hot glue to hold it in place.
