    Is that one of those OOTRA or whatever switches? Winch, rock lights, plow up, plow down, bilge pump, etc.?

    It looks like it. A friend of mine has OTRATTW switches in his FJ and every single one has broken and is held together with superglue

    Ur just :jellydance:

    Yeah, they look really nice and fit in the factory blank locations, they may be 4 times what I could spend, but I'd rather do this and make it look really nice since I'll have the truck for another 6 years at least.

    He said;

    "The whole front face piece fell off on all 3 switches I bought from them. The piece moves up/down to turn them on and off. It's held on by 2 tiny pieces of plastic that breaks after you use them a few times. I superglued both spots that broke and they've held up well since"

    Seems like everyone around here uses those switches, I wonder why I haven't heard about them breaking before....

    :notsure: my KC Hilites came with a switch. it works fine except for the little led that's supposed to light up to signify that the switch is on
    but not the same kind as the one in the picture
