    The first gen Lexus IS300 STALKS are plug and play a 2000 and up Tacoma both headlight and wiper, and they look cool with a little grey accent

    Interesting. Got any pictures?

    Does the headlight stalk have a fog light switch?

    Why only 2000 and up?

    I think they're interchangeable for all 1st gens. If I remember correctly, my intermittent wiper stalk came from a 2001-2004 Tacoma and it fit fine into my 1998.

    I spy what looks like a fog light switch in your pic. I wonder what sort of wiring it would take to make that operational. There's a thread around here where someone was looking at doing that with a Camry (I think?) lever but they abandoned the project before they got into wiring.

    Yes that’s one of the reasons why I changed them I wanted the fog light switch. I simply found the two fog light switch wires in the stalk and ran separate wires and use the switch as a simple interrupt with a relay

    I used to get so confused since the Tacoma is the only Toyota I've had where pulling the stalk made the washer go. All my others had the button.

    Really? My corolla, my wife's crv, etc are all this way. If you want to REALLY be confused get in a 1990 F150 with the high beam switch on the floor.

    Modern chevies have turn signals, wipers, and just about everything on one stalk and just figuring out how to turn the wipers off was annoying as hell.

    Yours is labeled with an arrow indicating to pull :p
    I have 5 cars from 5 different companies, I can't even remember which side the gas cap is in any of them. I'm always confused.
