Actually..my 1974 FJ40 had it in the glove box on the left side upright wall. used it once to see if that was really for the little drop light stashed in there too. It worked!

Replaced the driver side mirror replacing the original that broke in mid flight on way to town few weeks ago.

Oddly enough new kit from slocruisers had two passenger side gaskets and original is squashed to crap.

Kudos to John with @SLOCRUISER who promptly responded to my email and is gonna ship one out.

Nice to have good folks who know how to run a business helping support our addictions!
