I wired my garage opener to an OEM style aftermarket momentary switch in my Toyota FJ Cruiser.

I started to watch the video on your wife’s RAV4 then came over here. I love this mod! I ordered the switch now to get ready for some soldering work!

@LiL13izzy7 2 месяца назад

Great! Let me know how it goes

I use the lil spot in the console for holding ranch dip for my jalapeno poppers when I go to Jack in the Box.

@LiL13izzy7 3 года назад

Nice! I'm going to try that.

@dwayneleigh9 3 года назад

Awesome mod! I already did my own version of a hidden garage opener for my FJ! videos' clips will be posted soon! its been in the paint shop for weeks getting the roof resealed & touch ups.

@LiL13izzy7 3 года назад

Excited to see what you did!

@rdsmith334 3 года назад

Great idea and I’ll be doing this. I have the “clutch start cancel” button there, so I’ll have to install on the center cluster though.

@LiL13izzy7 3 года назад

Awesome. I like this spot for the garage button!

@omargarsh2663 3 года назад

Very neat mod! The little spot in the console where you had the opener was originally supposed to hold an iPod, IIRC. I put a coin holder from a 2001 blazer there with some double sided tape, looks factory.

@LiL13izzy7 3 года назад

Well, now that I have that space open I will look into that coin holder. Thank you!

Awesome video brother. I just did the same mod. I pulled the silver air vent dash panel to the left of the steering wheel and mounted my clicker there. Plenty of room. Thanks for sharing.

I was about to do this mod as well, but decided on getting the mirror that has it built in. Found one for $60.

I'm interested in how that goes for you, since I also considered it.

Do you have a link for the mirror?

@zachlittle6122 3 года назад

@@eqlibrium854 I don't, I got it used on ebay. I know the mirrors that were in Avalon's around 11-13 were very similar. But you have to send them to a guy on ebay that changes one of the wires in the harness.

Thank you for that video. I believe I am going to do the same thing but put an in line a 12v to 3v step down module ($10 or less on Ebay) and power it off of the car. That way it will only work when the car is on. Thank you.

Sounds like a good idea. Let me know how it works out for you!

Is the battery supposed to stay on remote?

@LiL13izzy7 2 года назад

The way I did this mod, yes.

@fredalcaro4823 2 года назад

Question on this. The link to purchase the switch says that it must be wired through a relay or it will melt the switch. Dont have huge electrical experience, but doesn't look like you did that here. Any reason why, and have you had any issues?

@LiL13izzy7 2 года назад

Yes, the relay is recommended for 12V accessories powered through your car battery. Imagine the load on the switch from a heavy load like a winch, or flood lights...that would not be good without a relay. In this case, the clicker is powered by a 3V battery, that's not connected to the car. I am confident the switch can handle a 3V button cell battery load without any issues.

@fredalcaro4823 2 года назад

@@LiL13izzy7 Ah, so thats the difference. Makes a lot of sense! As I said, not a lot of electrical experience, so I was curious your thinking. Thank you! Your channel is fantastic for an old Fj owner like me!
