Your truck doesn't want a tilt wheel, are you sure did you ask it nicely?

No difference in the headlamps, but you'll get intermitten wipers with the upgraded combo switch

Is that new or used part? The reason I ask is in denver the whole column, wheel and switches only cost ~50 at the salvage yard. You might be able to get one for cheap at the salvage place.

thats for a new part, the salvage yards in my area like never get any toyota trucks, and when they do they striped all the way down in almost a day or two. so will the switch work?

Ouch pricey!

Yeah it'll work, not aware of any differences besides tthe intermitten wipers.

Mine is a fixed column combo switch backing, with the intermitten switch swaped over. (Broke the headlight arm on the tilt one and it wasn't wanting to come off)
