The GT86 and BRZ limited use an LED icon in the cluster..... Damn should have bought the TRD switch with the LED indicator. If I did it would have been a direct swap.

Moral of the story if you want this switch order the one with the LED indicator......

After taking a quick look at the wiring diagram it is not that simple, because it has data sent to the cluster IC and not a simple signal wire. I haven't given up yet.... stay tuned.

Here is a pic of the FR-S icon which we have......



Here is a 2013 Rav4 for reference

Mr 086A -- could you please post a picture of the completed center console/pocket/push button area with the usb/aux jack showing?

ALSO -- did you find a way around the 2-second push-to-shut down?


Thanks in advance!
