    Started planning for the CKMA12 compressor install. What switches would go here if I had them?

    [​IMG] and can I use any of the wires for my ARB switch install?

    I've got a good power source for them(for the red wire), but they say to also wire to a hot wire on a dimmer like dash lights (for the blue wire). I'm lost where to hook up for that one.

    Put it back together with the wire harness attached. Will be back at it tomorrow - hopefully get the compressor mounted and finish the wiring.

    Are these better than the Toyota TRD floor mats? I was considering those.

    Those seat covers looks nice.

    One thing that I don't like about my weathertech floor liners is there's a noticeable gap beetween that kick panel and that top lip on the driver side. Passenger and back piece fits like glove.

    You could tap into the dimmer wire(s) in the switches below your ARB switch. Stock wiring on the switches below is:

    Green wire = positive dimmer wire
    Green wire with white stripe = negative dimmer wire

    Excellent. Using info from the quote below, should I tap into the fog light or 110v outlet?

    ETA: Up2NoGood, just realized you wrote "below...ARB switch". Which switch are you suggesting I tap into? I don't have power mirrors so I put my Warn winch solenoid switch there, and was going to pull power from that.

    Suggestions greatly appreciated.

    Thanks. I applied 303 when new to the undercarriage and it helps a lot, also leaving in SoCal helps a lot too and the truck is a city truck...
    The opti coat it's awesome, the truck looks just waxed all the time..

    Just got back from a small vacation. First one with a new baby, new truck, new (borrowed) camper. Awesome time. Brother in laws bike almost fit in the short bed with the gate closed, didn't think it would.

    This is on my short list of next mods. I too jabeb the Fabtech 6in lift with the dirt logics. I've been wanting to get away from the block list in the back for quite some time now.

    How was the install? Did you run into any issues? How long did it take? Did you take pics along the way? Have you tried to pull/haul anything with the new setup yet?

    Please keep us/me :) updated on your thoughts about this addition to your rig as I'm very interested in hearing them. Thanks in advance.

    Tap into whichever you can find those green and green w/white stripe illumination wires. Those are just illumination wires not for the 12V "hot" you need run to the switch.
