2012 - 2015 2WD Gauge Pod option using 4WD Part Number 5541204090 $129.28 PANEL, INSTRUMENT CLUSTER

Can Somebody please take a picture of their 2012 - 2015 4WD switch as shown but with a ruler laid across the center of the switch?

I have a 2015 2wd DCSB prerunner but i am curious about buying a brand new black bezel (pn 55412-04090) from the dealer so i can swap out mine and place a gauge in the spot where the 4WD switch would go. I need to know the hole size to determine if any shallow 2 inch or 2-1/8 size switch might fit into the lip of it. even if the diameter is larger thats great and i would make a plastic adapter ring to surround my gauge and fit it to the hole in the center instrument frame facia. Im not asking anyone to remove their switch but if someone happens to have one out, it would be great to get the measurement of the instrument panel hole instead of the gauge. a measurement of the recessed lip circle that the lip of the factory switch or an aftermarket gauge bezel would/could rest on and a measurement of the inner hole that the body of the switch or an after market gauge would/could pass thru...

 

This is what i am hoping to fit ....

 

Didn't pull the switch but.....

 

StickyTaco, Thank you very very much.... very cool...

i think this will work ....my specific gauge might not fit down into the lip recess but its made of plastic and i might have to shave the outside diameter or worse case maybe it'll still center but not sit recessed, either way i think thats enough info to give me confidence to order it and see if i can make it work. ill show pics when i get the center frame ordered and on hand and get it all done .... To be continued.... give me a few weeks. This might be a new gauge position option for 2WD owners

 

Follow Up.....

I received the new 4WD black instrument panel for my 2WD today.. I fitted the gauge into the unused drive selector spot and fabricated a bracket out of aluminum scrap to retain it.

It could not be a more perfect fit.

 

Planning on doing something similar when I go to an FJ transfer case.. Glad it worked out, now I know.. =)
