    I'm sure someone here has done it already, but has anyone found a good custom switch company with a replacement for this? Or I guess the better question is, is there any reason I can't just replace the thing with a custom small push switch from @CH4x4? Every time I glance down there I wanna buy a vowel and it's getting on my nerves. :rofl:

    If I understand you, you want to make this a switch so you can leave it on after a restart?

    Or are you saying you just want one that looks different?

    Just one that looks different. Seeing "PWR" on there just bugs me. lol

    I don't need Meso's "Always On, ECT Mod" or anything. Just seeing if I can replace it with a regular custom small push switch or if it needs to be a specific kind of switch. (Since it does reset once the vehicle shuts off)

    What about switching it out with one from a tundra. I'm not sure if they fit but they look similar.

    Huh. It does seem like the same size switch. And I like that they included vowels with the Tundra switch. lol
