What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

Interesting. What's the thread size for the shifter?

 

So with those switches from otrattw are they actually switches or what??

 

It's a 1/2" fine thread which is surprisingly hard to find at like Home Depot or lowes.

 

Alrighty, maybe I'll find something cool to put on my shifter. Although a baseball is a perfect for for my hand

 

It's really comfy, I'm still trying to get it to work right I got a cheap ball with like cork on the inside but it's not holding really well.. I might have to get a new ball

 

^^^ really wish I would've seen that a few hours ago haha thanks man

 

That's what you get for buying a girly soft ball

 

Haha for real!!

 

I'm really considering buying one.. Mine works but I feel like if I get alittle wild it might pop off..

 

Hate when that happens

 

Got the sliders on

 

Lookin good man bolt on or weld on?

 

Bahahahaha!

 

Thank ya. Weld on.

 

...or what? Not sure what else you think I would be referring to by calling them a switch...and you calling them a switch.

Go visit OTRATTW and see for yourself.

You have to specify the upper/lower independent version of switch when ordering.

Here's the wiring diagram.

The top two connectors are for the upper/lower ground. I just jumpered them together.

The middle one is your incoming positive from your fuse block.

The bottom left connector (with the thicker wire in my picture) is the positive out to your accessory.

The bottom right is for the lower switch LED positive. I found the Accessory positive wire coming off of the ignition switch and tapped into it there for all of my switches. That way when the key is on, they light up.

The top LED will automatically come on when you flip the switch as there's positive engaged at that point and you've already got ground from where it was previously jumped.

 

taught my friend to drive manual trans

 

Thanks. I ordered the correct switches, just was wondering where you tied it into. I was thinking of tapping into the factory clock wiring. I took a multimeter to it and found which one comes on with the dash lights, so I think I'll use that wire. Also nice because it's already behind my switches.

 

nice!

i taught 4 people on mine and learned on it myself..that and the offroading..clutch was done at 120k haha

 

ooooh great idea! I was just thinking what ignition power I could tap into since I had turned my 12v ports to constant power.
