I know I can't be the only one w/ a modified dash. Pics of mine will come this afternoon. Could you please post pics and stories of yours? Thankyou!
 
Minor modifications, mostly to accommodate and monitor the diesel engine.

I've added a glow button to warm the glow plugs to the left of the tailgate switch (hidden in the picture), a water separator warning light to the right of the rear heater switch and a bank of three gauges, voltmeter, boost and pyrometer under the dash at the e-brake handle area. The aftermarket gauge lighting is wiring into the dash lights and dims in conjunction with the dash lights. I even put the green "socks" on the aftermarket dash bulbs to get the right light color!

I am not aware of this option?

I would also LOVE to get my hands on one of the new 2010 4Runner 'Party' mode switches for my dash! Uber cool. :)


'Party' mode kicks up the bass and balances the speakers in the new 2010 4Runner to have more music blasting out the back end of the rig- for tailgating, inpromptu parties, etc. Wicked idea from Toyota! And the switch looks perfect... :)
 
Victor, "animaldevictor", in Costa Rica has a wood dash with all the OEM '55 instruments in it. Looks classy. Maybe he'll post a picture for us.
 
Sorry, pics coming this am of mine. Kinda got sidetracked, kinda M-bearasst. Please note: this mod was done long ago, and "for no good reason, whatsoever".(immortal words of legendary H.S.T.) If it gains any redemption for me, I'm trying to un-modify it:hillbilly:. I was really hoping there was someone else out there as stoopit as I am. I really shoulda known better.
 
Lambcrusher, your letting me down here with these false future post dates. I am all excited to see the "modded dash" and then no pics. Dang ha J/K but seriously I am waiting

You're right, Carm, that is bad form. You'll have to understand the procrastination...And don't hold back, I think I can take it :doh:

Well, I have to say that it had to take some work to fab all that up. Thats all I have to say. hehe = )
 
I'm hoping it's leaving.....
 
Your instrument clusters are backwards :lol:
