Hi

On my kids 2005 TC automatic- he seems to be missing a cover , **** or button for this square area which is above the shift pattern window and below the lighter on an automatic.

What is it that goes here?

Where may I get one?

Thank you!

Image I found on line Not detailed enough to show me what it is :

 

i've always wondered this as well. its always made me wonder.

 

That is for taking the transmission out of park without depressing the brake. Its used for service or towing. There is not a cool special thingy that goes there.

 

what he said...your just missing a little plastic cover there

 

Thank you Cody2005,ROBBMAG,testa422.

I'll see if I can order one at the local stealership.

I don't know which part it is at an online site such as toyotaexpress.com

 

found the part number/description for ya

33554-21010 COVER, SHIFT LOCK RELEASE BUTTON

looks like $3-4

 

Thank you sciontc_mich !!!

You guys make the site great!

How on earth were you able to locate the part?

I use the site toyotaexpress as it has images of the parts.

The closest I could get was this page and it doesnt help that much:

hey you're welcome! yeah i went to toyodiy.com and looked up the description, knew it was a shift interlock and found the corresponding description. But I know, looks like magic doesn't it?

here is the link to toyodiy.com that lists the part, sometimes the parts are updated but if you put the part into trdsparks.com under the oem parts search it will show you the updated part number. (there is no update, checked on that already)

you're right that picture isn't much help for this plastic cover! neither was trdsparks.com but that's definitely what the part is called. glad it helped you out!

 

Thanks again sciontc_mich.

I'll order it at the stealership as shipping for the 3 dollar part is 12 dollars!

LOL

 

you should do a shift boot conversion!
