    Has anyone else dealt with the window control switch housing breaking?
    What was your repair?

    Left side, master window control panel
    not the switch itself, but the plastic housing (light grey) that holds it all and clips into the door panel.
    A tab on it broke, so now it pops up on it's own, especially when closing the door.

    Also noticed that newer Tacoma's have black ones, and not grey. It might look better.
    I tried gluing on a new random clip I found that might work, but it only held up for like a week.
    Anyone know a good fix?

    last time I saw a case of this, guy ordered a whole brand new one from the dealer for like $230 (ouch)

    I was thinking silicon the under edges of the console then press it down and see what happens. I've already installed the speakers I want. Whoever wants to get in there next (future me), can get a hair dryer and pretty it off.

    I tried to glue mine with gorilla glue but it only lasted a few weeks... I ended up finding the part online actually listed in another thread on here there was a link. keep searching and you will find it.
