    I'm looking for 2 switches in a single package that fits in the larger cutout hole of 1gen Tacomas to control the bulb and high-beam circuits of my bi-xenon fogs. I think the new-school Tacoma switches can be made to fit the 1gen style dash cutouts with a bit of trimming, but I'm trying to avoid trimming anything from stock. Has anybody seen such a switch that fits in the old-school dash cutout (face dimensions are 24mm x 42mm)?

    Thanks if any ideas.

    The pic below is similar in function but obviously takes a custom hole.

    Thanks. I could find something like the pic above for cheap... I'm trying to find something that operates like the switch in the pic (2 independent switches) but fits the 1gen dash cutout and ideally looks somewhat stock.

    I suppose an alternative would be a single rocker that has an up/center/down position with center off as long as it was DPDT to control 2 independent circuits (lights vs electromagnetic shutter for high beam).
    Edit: functions like this, but fits a gen1 Taco dash cutout: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-3-Po...-Pin-DPDT-10A-250V-Car-Accessory/333083772909

    Thx if anything.
