    The puddle switch will not fit in the factory blank. The puddle switch fits the small blank , type B.

    Here is my set up for reference

    Yes the CP6.1w will work for you. It is the same panel I have. Top row is 4 small switch holes which fit the puddle switch perfectly.

    Thanks fellows. I thought I read a while back that it wouldn't fit my blank. I decided to to go with a pocket switch panel with 2 type C slots and one type B. Can't wait to install my switch.

    Custom switch panels are in the making, thanks guys!
    Also, my switch BLANKS are just finishing up in the mold, so if you want OEM quality at half the price, stay tuned!

    So much room for activities:D

    Only made the mold for the small Toyota blank since it is the most popular.

    The conversion begins :)

    Anyone know if power rear window button (located usually on lower switch panel near the bottom below head unit) if unplugged can reach to the left side driver cubby switch panel? I thought I saw someone say it won’t reach..

    I'm pretty sure it won't since Toyota likely used enough wire to position the switch as is; including enough to move it over would cost $$$ over the span of production. It's also probably joined in a larger harness with other nearby switches. But you could buy the corresponding plug online and make a custom extension.

    Anybody else fit one of these smaller Oem usb plugs into a Meso lower panel? I need to add more switches here but don’t want to give up my Oem plug used for CarPlay. Any help is appreciated, thanks team!

    It was on the left side as the stock location in the 16-17(maybe 18). It is POSSIBLE that there is enough wire, the harness does run on the driver's side I believe. Wit that said, you may have to pull the wire out of the sleeve in order to determine that.

    I would suggest that the easier solution would be to extend the wiring from the center console to the left side, which is what I did with my ECT button. You could strip the sleeving back an inch or so back from the plug and cut each wire splicing in 2-3 foot of wire via solder and shrink tube, new wire and sleeving can be purchased in many places if you do not have any on hand. Then pull the plug from the center to left side to the position you want the switch.
    I am of course making assumptions that you have the required skill set to accomplish this.

    Best of luck!!

    @MESO I am planning on ordering a left side switch, but i'd like to grab a few blanks as well! Any eta on these blanks? I don't want to miss out on the switch panel being in stock if the blanks will still be a while yet... Thanks
