    I am wanting to get the look of a 2011+ instrument cluster in a 2007 truck. I want OEM quality, so I am thinking of swapping out the gauge face from a 2011 into my 2007 cluster. However, I am fairly certain the indicator lights were moved around by Toyota at some point. Does anyone know if the 2011 cluster kept them in the same place as the 2005-10 trucks?

    If this is not a simple gauge face swap, would it be possible to move wires around in the harness to get the correct lights to light up in the new locations after swapping gauge faces? For example, if the TPMS light and seat belt light traded places, could those wires be swapped around to make it work?

    I'm hoping they didn't change the light locations during the first year of the new gauge face.

    Perhaps cutting the leads on the board and running small wires from the cut leads to the correct bulb would allow me to use the gauge face of a 2012 cluster on my 07 cluster. I feel like I'm talking to myself here, but maybe someone with some knowledge will show up eventually.
