I bought mine from Proffitt's, before they went out of business. I believe they are back in business, in one form or another, so you might check with them. They made a 3-switch and a 4-switch version if I recall correctly. Mine is the 4-switch version:

Yes; Advance Adapters parts purchased through Georg (Valley Hybrids at the time).
Clean looking! I do love how Toyota put a cigarette lighter and ashtray just in front and above a gas tank! Would make liberals cry like babies today!

They have carling and oem round switch plates for the ashtray

That is a really good idea. I like that there is not permanent modification of the dash. I just got done restoring my ash tray so good enough for now. It would be pretty easy to make out of aluminum sheet. IF you made it yourself you could use whatever switches and arrangement you like. I like to paint this kind of thing with wrinkle paint. It would match the soft dash, more of less, that way.
Redline has a nice one also

OEM round can fit different switches and knob combinations as well.
Here is the link to the Red Line one, it's only for round switches, and i have a bunch of Carling ones left over from my fj60, so not what I needed, but useful to have here.

It's billet, has a nice step around the edges, and looks sweet.
I can personally recommend these guys for Carling switches and switch covers. They have a huge assortment of different switch covers and they can make one up of your design.

This was a Tucker Sno-Cat project with switches bought from OTRATTW.
We wired the switches so when either the headlights were turned on or the dash lights were turned on the descriptive legend was illumintated. When the switch itself was turned on the symbol illuminates as well. In this photo the headlights are on.
