    A few things
    Yup. It's an Air On Board switch. I actually got mine off eBay for $28 shipped but you can get from the website above too. They sell both the square switch that's to right of steering wheel and the rectangular ones to the left of steering wheel.

    Very popular this week!

    I like the Carling switches but really liked the idea of having a factory look and not bumping them by accident. So I went from this:

    To this:

    And this:

    Now I have to figure out how I'm going to repair the hole in my center console. I may just chicken-out and buy a new one - but they're a bit pricey when I looked.

    De-badged the tailgate. There is 0 evidence now that this is a PreRunner. But seriously, all the chrome badges and Leer stickers were overkill

    Yes...Hoegaarden is the shit!...:D

    Bro...After completing the first taillight I've decided not to do the other one. You can take your time with this project and in the end you're still gonna see flaws. You just can't cut off the lens of a factory sealed light and not have some kind of fissure and the resealed edges just show too much sealant/glue under the surface when resealed which is really noticeable and not up to my OCD standards...lol I did end up painting a border around the lights as well to hide the sealant and fissures in the plastic, but nah...no likey..

    I ordered the "Spec-D" taillights anyways, so I wasn't worried about F'ing up the project. If it was a Bake like the fronts which I did a couple months ago...those came out like OEM's since no cutting required. Good luck for all you guys doing the taillight mod!...:)

    I have the OTRATTW switches and you're correct...they're easy to bump on. The factory switches don't have the same Wow factor, but they're more practical in design I guess. I think both switches look outstanding in form and function. Guess it's just a matter of taste in the end...:)

    Took out my interior center console area to paint it but didn't get to work on it because I had to finish painting a dresser for my daughter's room.. So my truck is sitting there very empty looking right now... But my daughter's room looks great with a new dresser! Haha tomorrow I'll have to try painting the console and probably install some LEDs

    I took a small pebble and wedged it inbetween one of the plastic snap things, but you could use a piece of wood or something too

    u must run both, they are different sizes

    also, I tried some from Ebay and not only were the colors switched, but they still didnt fit.

    buyer beware............ they arent too expensive from the dealership, and I have NEVER had a problem with fitment from the dealer
