Toyota Tundra Forum

Hey guys, I was driving home last night and noticed a light shining towards the radio and realized there's a light underneath the Homelink/compass mirror shining down. Mood lighting? Radio controls are all lit so I'm not sure why Toyota put one there. Too far away to be a map light... I guess it's just like the small LED light for the ash tray in the console. Good for nothing except show!

Any answers to this? I was wondering about this also as a new Tundra owner. 2 weeks old '08 CrewMax.

You'd be about right Gr... if you use the "ash tray" in the center console it serves a purpose.... otherwise, I think it's kinda neat as a mood light for extracurricular activities in the Tundra, lol!

I always wondered that myself i guess it to help show you all the dust on the dash at night time too :|

It's called a shift light. It is suppose to add a little light on the floor shift lever. I guess for those who can't find the shifter in the dark.

Right It shines on the shifter if you have a console! I guess it shins on a colum shift if in park also.

I believe Toyota calls it the PRNDL light.
