    They are pretty bright. There’s an optional switch for always on, auto, and always off.

    uhhhh....dog fur?
    I happen to be totally wanting to copy you.
    I ordered the same 2 switch panel
    Can you share a picture of how you did the ground? I am confused about that, but am guessing there are no good grounding areas up there.
    Thank you very much!

    Super easy to do!

    For the ground, watch my Instagram story highlight: https://www.instagram.com/stories/highlights/17935184386330852/.I used a quick splice connector and the black wire (not black/white) from the traction control button.

    For the blank, I ordered part # 55539-28160-C0 from Toyota from my local dealer parts department. It is thesmall switch blank cover that's 1.28″ x 0.87″ (32.5 mm x 22 mm). It cost $5.19 + tax picked up. You may be able to find it on Amazon, eBay, or a parts department online. It was cheaper for me to pick up in person and I was able to pick it up in a day or two.

    Reach out if you have any more questions!

    I hate to try and search through all these. I installed the switch next to my ect button, where’s a good spot to ground from there?

    Thanks to @TimC the switch came out perfect and couldn’t be happier. Thanks @MESO for making the puddles even better, now I just need the red push start and we’re good :thumbsup:

    Okay guys having issues.
    1. My key fob wont unlock or lock the doors. New batteries and even used spare fob. Only detects key fob if i am sitting in the truck
    2. When i manually lock the doors they automatically lock back If the drivers door is open. Its a quick lock and unlock .
    Check and double checked the connectors i am also running the switch. Seems to work on is on, auto shuts off.
    3. If i get out of the truck and close the door warning lights come on no key detected it just stays on .
    Any help ? I spent the morning installing and about to take all out ,not sure if the truck will start i better check that.
