    Hi everyone! I just bought my taco a few weeks ago, and this is my first post.

    When I’m driving at night, I hate extraneous light inside the cab. So how the heck do I turn off the little light above the wireless charging pad? Am I missing something super easy, like a hidden switch?

    Thanks!
    Pistol

    New cars have all sorts of extraneous lights, noises and safety features. Some are useful, most are pretty annoying. Get used to it.

    I feel the same way. I’m going to cover it with tape as suggested

    you could turn down the lights on the dashboard. I believe that controls that light too and also dims that. I like mine at the dimmest setting

    I’d like to figure out a way to dim the Entune screen.

    Thanks gang. I figured I’d have to just tape over it, but hoped there was a more elegant solution I was missing.

    I'm glad you asked. This is super annoying and even dimming the interiors isn't enough. I guess I'll tape mine too until someone figures out a better fix.

    This is the first light I noticed that annoys the hell out of me.... it reflects off my phone screen and onto the rear windows. and then I see it glaring at me from the rearview mirror

    Does anyone know if there is a red replacement bulb/LED for wgatever that light is? I feel like it wouldn't be so terrible if I could swap ot for a softer color.
