    I removed those annoying stickers on the sun visor.
    I see you're doing 3rd Gens now!

    I'm looking at swapping out the blue LEDs with red at some point, for both the gauges, and the climate/4wd controls. Do you know what LEDs I would need? I've taken apart the climate controls, and they appear to be different from the ones you listed for the 2nd gens, but it's hard to tell for sure.

    swapped 2008 cluster with custo faceplate supplied by customer. Basically almost looked own 12-15 dash face
    And looks great and quality is awesome too. Will post link later

    Which makes me wants to do the same one on my truck :laugh:


    EDIT: faceplate website:

    https://www.blackcatcustom.com/toyota_tacoma.htm

    If youre going to purchase one you need to make sure you put all the proper information for your year vehicle; the dash might look the the same between the 05-11 trucks but they are not; certain lights are not in the same location due to new "features" added to trucks after 2009

    So installed a new steering wheel and controls; swapped the LEDs to green (these came out of a 5th gen runner so they where orange)

    also started to do these more lately so hit me up :thumbsup:

    So are you all moved into the new Casa? Been waiting for your response. Like to change my LS swapped Taco dash lights from red/orange to stock 15 color. So say it’s white others say it’s a light blue. Also the bulb for the hazard button is out too!

    Thanks,
    Randy

    Sir,
    Now that you reminded me I found it :anonymous:
    So my apologies as I totally misplaced it!
    It’s not a big deal just need to know if you are setup and ready to change the light color/s?
    Also my truck needs to go back to the shop AGAIN for more electrical work because of the :jpow: I hired to install the LS. It’s smart to hire professionals if something is above your skill level but in this case I hired someone that was below my skill level but he was a good BS artist‼️ :frusty:

    Also did you find the part # for the “bulb” for the hazard button itself?
    Again no biggie I’m absolutely in no rush!
    I will text you at a decent hour.

    Randy
