    Clean. Fiberglass molded, and some sanding I assume?
    You should throw it in a mold and start pumping them out!

    I have three more to finish. This is one of them.

    I thought about it. I believe I would have to make one out of wood or metal to be able to make a mold. Just don't have the time to do this.

    Wonder what happened. These things use to sell like crazy. Is there something new out there that I haven't seen?

    Lots of options out there. The sunglass holder switch holder option seems to rule the day now.

    Through the firewall, through the dash, up the pillar, and across the ceiling. You need to remove the lower dash, pillar cover, and drop the headliner.

    Or hillbilly style and duct tape it over the dash, up the pillar and across the ceiling. ;)

    I was hoping I could use a fish tape or a ginormus Zip-Tie to fish the wires.

    I didn't use anything but my fingers. The hard part was getting them through the firewall but Toyota has a grommet on the driver side that I fed my wires through.

    theres 3 different options for switch panels up there.

    PLUS

    theres a switch panel that is now available to go below the radio.

    theres a switch panel that could now go in the space below the charging ports

    theres also a switch panel you can install in your center console by the cup holder.
