    Hi, I have a 2012 tundra club cab Trd. I have installed a bull bar and a 25"light bar. I was looking to mount a switch in the blank either to the right or left on the USB AUX port. The 2 blanks have wires in them. I don't know what the wires are for . Usually blanks do not have any wires. Any help will be appreciated. I have included pics of the wires and location, Thanks, Tj

    Glass breakage sensor for alarm? Can't tell since I can't see the front of the "blank". What trim is your truck? Welcome from CO!

    It's not the glass breakage sensor that's for sure. I'm at a loss not knowing much about the 2nd gens. Maybe @TundraTex may know?

    Just shove it back in the hole and use the blank spot.

    Based on the wire color and location, the left spot is for the left seat heater control and the spot to the right of USB is the Glass breakage Mic wires. The far right spot would be for the right seat heater controls. I agree with Joon and Alma, I would zip-tie and stow the connectors behind the panel.

    It is a pre wired thing that Toyota does so you add the accessorie that just add the switch. Just zip the back and use the blank.

    Can I steal the power from one of them for some interior lighting I am trying to install? Seems better then running a new one from the box.

    Solved, I just took it from one of the Cig lighters that has never worked anyway and put the 10 AMP fuse I needed inline. Never reconnected the cig lighter and ordered and "Eject" button plug for the dead outlet, truck has 3 others.
