    UPDATE:
    I was taking a break from custom switch panels in order to direct my time on other projects. Now I have been getting a ton of requests from PM, email, IG, etc.(it seems that every year Toyota keeps changing the switch panel layout), so I am thinking about opening up CUSTOM MADE(to your requirements) switch panels for 1 week only. Price will be a little higher than last time(my 3d print costs have increased, and this is now my full time business AKA overhead) But still very reasonable for a quality, OEM fit, custom layout panel. Any takers?


    That's nice. but the power window switch hole(cutout) is not like a standard switch hole. So just make sure it fits in the new location and functions properly.

    I'd order a custom. I'm guessing we would be able to request one of the layouts you've made as a custom?

    Incredibly interested. I've got an sPod screen and a Genesis G-screen that need a mounting location and any of your work is going to be cleaner than something I scratch out of ABS.

    yes. Any switch/light/controller/etc. As long as it can fit in the switch panel dimensions.

    Definitely in !!

    I just received my Switch Pro and SDHQ panel. I would much rather have yours since it flush mounts the Switch Pro.

    Have you considered making a standardized one or two to keep stocked? Maybe even doing it injection molded like you've started with the lights (though maybe not enough demand for that)? The 2020s look like the left hand side is going to be the same on the bottom, but replacing the top cubby section with only 2 switches up there (the new 360* camera button, and moving traction control over there to make room for the SOS button overhead). Seems like a waste of space! Wonder if a standard one with the OEM bottom (bedlight, AC power, auto high beam, CSC) and 4 switches up top (like CP6.1) would sell well enough to people wanting to upgrade their 2020 to make it worth stocking them? If not, I think I'd want to order one custom so I have a place to put a Redarc (can use a switch mounting panel with it) when I get a 2020 next year hopefully. Right now I have a Tekonsha in the cubby, but won't be able to keep using that in the 2020 since the cubby is gone.

    I'm in! I really need a lower control panel that can hold the cig lighter plus at least 5. I think you have a 7 plus cig lighter designed?

    The make an OEM one for the Premium & Tech trucks that are lighter+6 (1 of which is for the rear window switch). Not sure if it would be more or less $$ but would for sure be a molded part and doesn't require cutting/altering like the lighter+7 one does.

    It would be impossible to do a standardized one(or 2) everyone’s configuration is so different. What I have thought about is having a “blank base” that could be molded, then I would make special inserts for different types/sizes of switches. But still..most likely won’t happen. I think a Taylor made panel on a custom order basis is the only way to go.

    Yeah that is pretty much what I meant as a standardized one. OEM on the bottom and just 4 or 5 standard switches up top. There are already many switches and inserts (like the Redarc one) that use the standard Toyota switch hole, so I figured it would be the "safest" one if you did something standard. Or did you mean even more custom like a large cutout with specialized inserts, kind of like some already make to use in the cubby hole but larger?

    The later. But then people want switch pro cutouts, spod, etc. which would be really hard to adapt from a 2-3 regular hole version.
