I asked my local Toyota dealer how much they want for the switches and the guy told me $116.15 each.... 0_o. He also said they only came out of a Rav4, but 1sttoyotaparts.com says they are for a Sienna.
Even converting from US to Cdn, then add shipping, it would still be cheaper to order them out of the states. This post has been edited by Sinyk: Mar 3, 2009 - 9:36 PM -------------------- |

What is that button on the far left? The one that looks like a bacon strip being put on a plate.

Are the part number the same for the UK spec cars? Looking at investing in some seat heaters in my gen7 leather in my g6 If I can't be bothered though I'll just put the switches in as they are cool

Well I had a look at my RHD switch panel and has the notch cutouts to allow L/R switches to go in the right location. Have emailed my local dealers to get some prices

Well a total for 2 switches and 2 connectors from the dealer came back as £107.52 so around $150
Any kind folk in the states that could get me the parts and send them to the UK? -------------------- www.celica-club.co.uk

Does anyone have part numbers for the security lights? I noticed some have just a light and others look like they have some sort of sensor below the light. I've found a couple on eBay that are close but not exactly right to match the seat switches.

Does the seat heater/alarm switch panel for RHD have the same PN??
Or does the screw holes in it line up the same as the middle storage hole in my RHD shifter trim? -------------------- Mike W

Nice! I've got a question about heated seats. I've got cloth seats in my car, (I know some of you are already like uh oh...) and I would love to swap them out for leather but I don't have the money for that. I wouldn't think it would be a good idea to put seat heaters in a cloth seat but one of my friend's parents has them from the factory in a Saturn Vue. I know, Saturn... Gay. But they put seat heaters in cloth seats. So is that even doable? I'd like to have heated seats but I'm not brave enough without confirmation from somebody OTHER than Saturn. My girlfriend has a Jetta with heated cloth seats - I absolutely don't think you need to have leather to install these. They shouldn't ever get hot enough to be a hazard. I'll keep you updated on that one though, as I also plan to do this same mod! But I was just gonna hit a junk yard to find some switches that didn't look quite so "Made in China" as the eBay switches do. Sweet! Now that I have had someone else say it, I might spring for them this Christmas! I'll let you guys know Subaru does it as well.. My 08 WRX, and 05 Legacy GTs have heated cloth... Also my dad's STi has heated alcantra {spelling?}. |
