Only worked well once for switches and relays

Luckily I tried twice before closing the sunroof - it worked the first time but not the second (and many more) after that. Plugged in the old one (that worked ok but was sticky) and it worked over and over again so I opened the lid and used it. If I closed the sunroof, I would be in serious trouble.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Switch and relay repair needed

Fits perfectly and opens the tailgate easily. mine on my 07 4runner was melted and very difficult to open, especially in the cold winter. It was the difference between day and night and I wouldn't hesitate to do it again. Buy this if yours is even a little hard to open now I can open it with my pinky. I can't recommend enough to change it

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Nothing

As with the others, the original tailgate release switch on my 4Runner never failed, but the gum started to break, so I thought it would be a good idea to use the "sticky" switch. When I started I received the product, it seemed to me to be well designed and I had no trouble installing it. It worked fine for about 9 months but started to fail a few months ago. I tolerated that for a while, but now it just doesn't work. It looks like I would be better off buying an OEM part directly from Toyota.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have opted for a newer model

Perfect replacement for a 2009 4runner

Installed on a 2009 Toyota 4runner. The original version had melted so badly that every time I had to open the back door there was a black deposit on my arm. I watched youtube before buying and had to refer to it throughout the install. This took several hours, mainly because I didn't have the right tools. The only thing not mentioned in the youtube video is that after closing the tailgate to remove the outer parts you have to climb back into the car to reattach everything to the inside of the…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure

Fixed problems with my rear camera

I bought a used 2013 4Runner and have had intermittent problems with the fuse. One day when I was reaching for the tailgate handle, I noticed that it had melted and sagged in the middle. I ordered a new rubber cover and was able to mount it from the outside. I was unable to hook the edges of the rubber cover slider under the metal tailgate. I was always afraid that water could get in there. Eventually I thought maybe the camera worked intermittently because the sunroof release button unlocked…

Pros
  • So far satisfied
Cons
  • I'll write back later
