    Hey everyone!

    I’ve seen there’s a lot of opinions out there on different brands of aftermarket “OEM Style” switches not matching the backlighting color of the OEM ones well. It would drive me crazy if the color was too mismatched.

    I have a 23 with the blue backlights. I’ve heard some brands are “too blue.” Wondering if anyone has found a brand that matches the blue tone better?

    Examples- AOB, CH4x4, Rave Off-road?

    Thank you!

    Sounds good, Rave is out. Hoping some folks with AOB or CH4x4 chime in. If not, I might buy one from each and post results

    Like @Tundra234 said, AOB is good. I haven't gotten any switches from them for 3rd gen. I had them on my 2nd gen Tacoma and they matched 100%. I have to have things match as well or it's not going to work. I've only added the anytime backup camera with a switch and got it on AliExpress. I didn't have much hopes for it but it matched 100% and was the least expensive I could find. The switch that came with that kit did not match.

    Might give them a shot if the 2nd Gen folks like them. I can’t imagine the button color chnaged much between late 2nd Gen’s and early 3rd Gen’s.

    I am slightly jealous of the 25+ tundras that have white, purely for the ease of matching aftermarket switches. On the other hand, the blue compliments the accent lighting and stitching of my Platinum very well.

    I'm with you on that for the blue vs. white on the switches. If I would have waited one more year I could have gotten the white illumination on the switches and accent lighting... I think the blue is nice though. I've gotten used to it by now and like it.
