Michael: Hi there. I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today we're taking a look at the mounting panel for your Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller control knobs. This is part number 331-TPSI-007. This is going to mount onto your vehicle's dash. It's going to make it look a lot more like it came from the factory when you install your control knob from your Tow-Pro Elite Brake Controller.
This will work with several different models of Toyota vehicles. You can find the list on the product page. The way this works, you'll take your button. You'll notice on the top, you've got a little extra knob there, that will fit into the knob on your mounting panel.So you just slide that in, make sure those are lined up, then you'll mount the rest of your hardware. Put that little washer there, then this nut.
You want to tighten that nut down to the specifications in the instruction manual. I'm not going to do that now just for the demonstration purposes. And then you can mount your dial. Once you have this installed, click it into place, and it's going to look a lot nicer than some of the other options you have on mounting your control knob. And it will still operate, allow you to have greater control on your braking system.Now, all these pieces are not included with your mounting panel.
They are included in the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer system so you should already have them. The panel itself comes by itself. That's going to complete our look at the mounting panel for your Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller control knob..

Mounting panel creates a factory look for your Toyota's dash when you install the control knob from your Tow-Pro Elite or Liberty brake controller.Perfect fit in the dash of a to21 Tacoma. Works excellent with the Redarc brake controller. Has a factory fit look.
2015 Tacoma - Install of Redarc Tow Pro Elite - Mounting Panel fit perfectly in an unused slot on the left side of the steering wheel. Finished product looks like a factory install.
One note, the rounded face does not let you use the marker bezel that goes behind the nut on the Tow Pro controller - not enough room to allow depressing the knob/button. I don't find this to be an issue since the LED is at the top and illuminates the number on the dial.

A year and several trips later and I am very happy with how the Tow Pro works and looks. The bezel issue mention in my earlier review was never a problem. One of the best things is that with the hidden installation I never notice that it is there until I need to use it.
I ordered this setup for my 21 Tacoma with the tow package. The harness mated perfectly with the Toyota receptacle under the left front kick panel, the mounting panel looks factory and fit in the dash on the left side of the steering wheel, and the module is mounted to the inside of the kick panel. It is a tight fit, but I was able to get it all in there. I have not had a chance to use it yet. That will be in a month from now.
This option made my installation way and very professional looking!
Either you have sent me the wrong item or something else is wrong. I have a 2019 4Runner and I received a. TPSI-007. Any chance you can get this rectified soon? Thank you

I see what has happened, for a 2019 Toyota 4 Runner you need part # 331-TPSI-002. I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you.
This insert is not exactly identical to the factory switches. It's a little darker in color, a little more glossy, and a little more narrow. However, fitment is still good, and now that I'm looking at it again for this review, the differences hardly seem noticeable. When it clicks into place, it stays there nice and snug. There's basically no risk of it accidentally popping out, like what you get with cheaper, more poorly made switch inserts.
I would definitely recommend getting this for your Tow Pro if you drive a late 2000s/early 2010s Toyota!
Perfect fit in the lower area of the blanks, which makes it a little hard to see in my truck when we're driving down the road- 2021 Tacoma
Best aftermarket brake controller on the market in my opinion. I used one of the blank knock-out switches in my 2020 Toyota Tacoma for a factory-esque installation.
These panels with the Redarc brake controller provide a factory install appearance in your truck. Excellent product.
Fit perfect in my 2019 Tacoma. All you need is a trim removal tool to pop out the tray and switch panel no screws and no need to try to remove the dash.
Looks and works perfect on my 2021 Tacoma along with the Redarc Tow-Pro
break controller
Popped factory piece out and this one popped right in
Panel fit great on my 2012 Tacoma TRD Sport. Recognize that this panel will fit on the left side (the slots near the mirror control), while this panel
fits the slots under the radio/above the cup holder.
I accidentally ordered the wrong one, but etrailer is great with quick shipping, and I'm sure if I would have asked someone when I put the order together, they could have pointed me to the correct part.
Should display trailer brake,like the other mounting plate you guys carry.
The controller works great! The switch mounting plate did not work out for my 2022 Tacoma. I have the access cab without the switch for the rear window, which is where I wanted to put the switch for the controller. I ordered the correct one elsewhere, so I could get it ASAP.
Fits perfectly in my tacoma with the taller OEM style switch blanks. Really clean install
Glad this product is available for the Redarc Tow-Pro for my 2020 Tundra. When installed it will look as if it came from the factory using the blank provided by toyota. Wish information for this product was included in the information for the brake controller. It would have save a week. Good thing I was not in a hurry for the completed installation. Pleasure using etrailer web site and service. Very effecient.

works great!
Sale person did a outstanding job for me
I haven't towed with the trailer brakes just yet but diagnistics indicate that once connected to the Tekonsha Brake Controller Harness (Item #331-TPH-017) and the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter (Item #3062-P) that I ordered with it all is setup for my 2022 Subaru Ascent with a factory tow package. The cleanest install for the switch on this vehicle is to remove and modify a blank switch insert to the left of the steering wheel (I had 2 left) and drill a 25/32 hole in the switch insert after hollowing it out, remove the switch module from the included mounting panel/housing and then use the clear nut to secure the switch module to the insert and voila, you're done. NOT the easiest thing to do, but not that hard either if you are handy with a dremel and a drill. Picture of final install included.
Great fit, factory Look,
This will make mounting the control knob literally a snap.
Install was easy and everything works s uper.
Perfect fit for the long knock out switch panel blank for my 2012 Tacoma
