    Pretty sure red is illumination and blue/yellow is dimmer. I think that's what it was when I wired my stereo.

    Has anyone had any luck finding switches that are single pole double throw? I want to do the camera always on mod with the switch on the dash, and these buttons would be perfect

    These are awesome! I was getting ready to pull the trigger on Contura V's, but these are way more awesome. Will still need a Contura for winch in/out, but that is OK.

    These look to all be SPST, the Conturas have SPDT.

    I have these on my 2014 as well, great look but the fit of the switch is a bit loose and wiggles around a lot. I also bought a switch for the center bank of blanks in the center dash for my rear LED pods. Hard to get the wire in there, but they look nice.

    My only gripe is the black plastic paint isn't really thick so when its backlit you see everything and the light fills the entire switch almost. Great buy tho! They have great customer service. I had two switches that failed after 3 months and they sent me replacements ASAP.

    Hopefully you can help me out, I purchased a switch from AOB and am trying to wire it into my 2 pod lights in the back of my truck. I could not get it to work on my own so searched on here and saw how you wired yours in. After trying how you described the wiring it is still not working.

    Here is the kicker, if I take the original switch and put it back on the harness it works no problem. So that makes me think that it is not a blown fuse. Could it be that my switch is bad?

    Please help

    My switch just came yesterday and this is the wiring diagram it came with. Do I use the negative switched method for a '13? Does this make my led bar come on with high beams only? And is this accurate for the wires from the switch? And last question, which wire is everyone tapping into for the dash illumination circuit? Thanks.

    I just installed one of these switches this weekend into my 09 DCSB OR and used the Negative Switched diagram. The button works as it should using the diagram supplied. The text on the button lights up when parking lights are on, and when I push the button the image lights up and turns on the bed lights.

    My button went in the blank in the lower dash by the atrac button, so I tapped the wires that light up the gear selector light (green/white and green wires). The only issue that I had was that the button dimmed opposite of the lights in the truck when tapping the green/white wire. I somewhat remedied this issue by tapping into the green wire instead. The button no longer dims like the the rest of the interior lights, but it does come on when the parking lights are on as I described above.

    Here is the link to the button I bought. It was the 9B60O 12volt Toyota OEM Replacement BED LIGHT amber on off.
