2012 Dash Switch pannel fit 2008?

Postby Stevo84 on Sat, 15 Feb 2014 7:01 +0000

Is anyone aware if the panel from a 2012 hilux will fit a 2008? 5 switch spots vs 3 is what i'm after. Will have to use 1 for the demister though.

I know the stereo / air-con controls are different, but the switch panel looks to be fairly similar?

Cheers, thanks for the info. I will go grab one :)

Is the horizontal switch on the bottom right the same size as the vertical switches or smaller? Does it come with those holes blanked but no blanks in the other 5 spots?

And the part number

Just remember if
You don't have the switches or aux plug or the aux power socket. You will need the plugs.

Hey Boxhead,

Do you by chance have the part number handy for the right hand plate too please? Mine's got a broken clip and I'd love to replace it.
Cheers,
Scuba Dooba

Hopefully the lighter grey as I ordered one today, as well as the blank for the aux plug.

Hey

I have the 08 version but it has the spots for switchs you just have to cut them out with a knife. There is even a guide line built into the plastic.

Enjoy

My 08 one has the spots to cut out as well. I want to use the OEM look switches, which you can still see the hole with so i thought the 2012 one would look neater. If i was using Carling that covers the hole better I probably would have just cut them out...

You can see the colour difference to the old blank plugs, but once filled with switches it wont be as noticeable.

The part number for the little square piece that fills the AUX/USB hole is: 555390D090B2
