    Looking to customize the interior of my truck a bit and I've run across some internet pictures that have given me an idea. In my truck the switch panel just above the wireless charging pad contains the ECT button, QI button and the usb/aux port. There's lots of space left between them. In some internet photos it appears other trim levels have two other buttons there, possibly for backup sensor on/off and blind spot on/off. Can someone out there verify this?

    I'd like to find that trim piece from Toyota if that's the case to add a couple additional switches and keep the stock look. Just hoping there's a void behind it and not unused micro switches like in the JK wranglers.

    Also wondering if there's a void behind the panel where other trim levels have the auto climate control/heated seat buttons? That portion in my truck is solid. I'd like to fabricate a bracket for that location to hold the RAM mounts for my tablet and gps.

    You are correct.... The other switches are for backup sensor and blind spot

    Can't find a parts place with a parts fiche yet. I'm sure it'll hit early 2016.

    Still can't find anyone who has a 2016 parts fiche online. Hell, some dealers still only go up to 2014. Playing the waiting game.

    Seems to be going for about $120, picture shamelessly stolen from another member here.
