    Many A/C knobs out there, but this one is mine. Offering an aftermarket control knobs to match your outdoor and adventuring rig or simply want an alternative with better ergonomics!

    3D printed with engineer grade filament, ASA, to ensure durability against heat and UV!

    And yes... the North arrow will illuminate at night!

    Will have the link to purchase these on Etsy soon! Thank you everyone!

    UPDATE 10/2/2024: Thank you for everyone for those that were interested and purchased and the feedbacks! Hopefully by next weekend, I'll:
    - Have a set for the 4x4 folks!
    - Add an option to have the base color grey!
    I'll see if I can have the option to have the band illuminate, but it will only be white for now. Stay tuned and thank you everyone!!

    UPDATE 10/4/2024: Will not be taking in orders at the moment! Will take a pause to catch up on inventory and supplies!

    UPDATE 10/8/2014: I am SO sorry for the delay! I'm fine tuning my prints to have a better top layer too make accentuate the elevation lines better and for the second base color! 4x4 knob is almost done, I apologize and greatly appreciate your patience!!

    UPDATE 10/11/2024: THANK YOU for your patience! I've gotten so feedbacks and have made some improvements to the prints, added base grey as an option, AND have a 4x4 knob as an option!

    For those that have purchased a set prior to the release of the 4x4 knob and wants a the 4x4 knob, please reach out to me!

    Starting Oct 17, I'll have these on sale on my Etsy page for an increased price so get these while you can!

    UPDATE 10/17/2024: Will have the link to purchase these on Etsy soon! Thank you everyone!

    UPDATE 10/19/2024: 3 Piece climate control knobs are live on my etsy:

    A/C Knob Tacoma Toyota 3 Piece 3D Printed - Etsy

    Stay tuned for the 4 piece set with 4x4 soon!!

    I really need to thank @jpdeuce, @danteisme, and @TacoFMS for constantly keeping contact and assisting with getting the product better and the additional base color! And thank you everyone else that were early adopters of the product!

    Love these. If only that red ring around was like a clear that would allow light to shine thru as well i would be all over.

    I've tried the white band, personally in the daytime when I drive majority of the time it didn't look aesthically good.

    Could you design one where the band is clear so it would illuminate? i really like this design but that red just won’t match my interior of the truck

    I can try white, unfortunately, in the material I designated, there is no clear filament.
