    This sits next to the electrical external mirror control. Is it standard? What does it do?

    thanks

    It's not standard. Did you buy a mine spec Prado? Looks like a beacon light switch.

      Dalek Beacon?

      I'm with amts on this one... (not standard, probably a rooftop beacon or flashing light switch)

        It's the non factory optional lighthouse. Should be a foghorn too somewhere...

            Do you have spotlights fitted?
            It could be the on/off control for the spotties.
            If not your auto sparky should be able to work it out!

              Lighthouse needs a suspension upgrade, to cater for all the sandstone blocks, fresnel lens etc.

              Lots of PPers with the Stebel Nautilus horn, there are a few threads about, I will be doing that a bit later on as well.

                whatever you do DO NOT hit that switch while driving

                it turns on the Flux capacitor

                  It is a Carling Contura rocker switch (http://www.ionnic.com/electrical/swi...ra-series.html), commonly added to 4wd vehicles that had a Minebar (overhead rear facing stop/tail/indicators) and revolving light. It is probably still wired up but those wires most likely have been taped up somewhere. No need to do anything with it if you don't want.

                    Thanks for the tips...but I will pass on the foghorn.

                    The car did come from a mining company but showed no sign of anything mounted on the roof.

                      It wouldn't be too hard to make it look standard again. I would peel off the covers at the gutters to check that the roof mounting points are sealed. Otherwise, you may get some leaks into the cabin.
