I'm starting this thread as a reference for those interested in re-purposing OEM Toyota Switches for use in 80 Series Land Cruisers. Many Toyota switches from other vehicles of the same vintage have switches that will fit the various openings in 80 series trucks. The rectangular opening seems to be a Toyota standard dating back into the early 1980s.
There are some very rare switches out there that can be re-purposed for other uses to power winches, air compressors, lights, heaters, vibrating seats and other accessories limited only by your imagination that will maintain that factory look with proper illumination, pigtails for wiring etc.
I'd like this thread to be a reference for any Toyota OEM switch that will fit without much modification in 80 series trucks.
Pictures will be appreciated as many will not know of the vast amount of options and configurations out there.
Part numbers and pigtail interchangeability will also be appreciated as will original vehicle source if known.
Some have tried relabeling factory switches but I do not know of any that look good. Feel free to post other items relating to relabeling of OEM switches etc.
I'll start the thread with an interesting switch I just picked up. This was originally in an Lexus LS400 and with my love of Snow, I had to have it. Not sure of part number on this one.
