modding your car the right way (no half ***) takes money unfortunately. I'll gladly shelve out money for reputable parts. I learned a long time ago that half *** mods only lead to problems cosmetically or worse...mechanically (cut/heated springs??? ) If you REALLY want any mod, save up and do it once the right way. If you can't justify the cost leave it stock. This is a beautiful car stock. happy modding!!

to be honest with you I never even compared the two. the button I received wasn't advertised as the button for the 2014 IS. I think it was advertised for the FR-S. In any case...I know mine fits, well mine obviously, and it also fits in the new gen GS. Who did you get it from? Id reach out to Nigel-jdm parts and/or JoeZ...they can help you get the right part. =)
Maybe JoeZ can chime in on what that connector is. And as he too warned, I got it on eBay...
I was warned by JoeZ about these buttons on EBAY. He said there were a ton of fake ones. But maybe you just got one for another Toyota and the salesrep never bothered to check if it would fit this application.
how much was it on EBAY btw? was it close to $200?
I like this ....... our Start / Stop button up there is pretty noticeable and it being bright red makes it look even cooler IMHO !! HMmmmmm just may need to look into this more !!
