    Is there a good add-on compass and thermometer to show the outdoor temp? My Tacoma did not come with either which surprises me. Thanks!

    Im pretty sure you can swap out the overhead consol for an early model with the temp/compass options

    IIRC '13 was the last year prewired for such.

    Even my little 5 lug base turned out to be a PnP proposition.

    13 was the last year that came with them.

    All 14’s should have the wires in place, and I think 15’s were hit and miss.


    As others have said you can change out the overhead compartment or mirror. I’ve done both and the mirror is easier.
