    It's where the airbag switch goes, I need a replacement panel/cover piece.

    Side question: are there any rocker switch type boxes that are made to fit directly into that spot, or would one need to have the panel to make a cut out for the switch?

    Not sure if it has a specific name but that's the blank panel for the Passenger Airbag light (key-switch for On/Off)

    Knew what it was. I’m trying to find out if you can buy the blank cover somewhere.

    That one looks like a blank for the ect button and hazard lights. I don’t see the blank for the air bag switch on any of those diagrams either.

    Yeah, the airbag switch seems to be a different size than the normal switches (like ECT, diff, etc) and also difference than the lower switch blanks... Might just start going to junkyards once a week till I find one. As far as I know, just double cabs have the blank.

    I got my airbag blank from Camelback Toyota of Phoenix AZ.
    The Part# is 55524-04010
    I do have an 04 DC Tacoma. So my truck doesn’t have the keyhole. It’s just the blank. @gunny1005 is the guy who works there and he can send you an invoice and get you all taken care of.
