    I am installing a led switch in my taco and I want it to function like the other dash lights but I need some help locating some of the wires to those functions. Does anybody know where the scroll dimmer wire is at? Also you know when you turn on your headlights or the parking lights the dash lights turn on. Where is that wire so that I can tap into that function?

    A few bolts are different.
    on the climate control is probably the most accessible place. your looking for a solid green wire and a green w/ white stripe.
