    The locker switch is from a 4 Runner and I use it as an ABS on/off switch. The fuel pump switch (I just purchased another OEM version where the image is vertical, to match all other switches) activates the fuel door latch/lock that a former member used to sell as a kit. I like the extra security for the fuel door.

    I was waiting for someone to ask. Ha. The headlight leveler setup has been a project of mine that I started off of a former member’s idea that was never fully finished. Mine too is not fully finished.:anonymous:

    Most of the idea is on paper and most of the parts have been collected. Not quite sure when I’ll finish it. I do tow various trailers on a regular basis and wanted the option of leveling out the headlights electronically, especially being lifted as well. In the meantime, I have manually adjusted the headlights slightly lower so I’m not blinding ppl. It is a neat idea all in all.

    Thanks for making a great product. I always wanted an overhead switch panel. I like that idea of the speedwire. I’ll be looking more into that today.

    I do have another 2nd Gen switch panel idea for you... if you’re interested... Let me know.

    Where did you get your switches from?

    They’re all OEM switches from various model Toyotas. I probably have 30 different OEM switches. Some are new, some are used. Some are in boxes, some are mounted in the truck either wired up or preparing to get wired.

    Stuff... Need more stuff
    @MESO

    Do you have an ETA as to when the Overhead Switch Panel (OHPSP) will be in stock?

    Thank you.

    Got around to illuminating all of my switches. Found out that the gas door switch can be illuminated, but the image is painted on and not transparent. Kind of a bummer. Brake clean took the image right off. Took the switch face off and it’s solid black plastic on the inside. Did some research and found a vertical image gas door switch, which won’t light up either unfortunately, but that’s the switch I’ll be using until I decide if I want an aftermarket illuminated one. Enjoy.

    Definitely put me in for a 6 tall switch panel. I'm holding off on a few projects until I can get one of these.
