    One of the two switches I have wired in always has power and the other is tapped into a blank spot on the stock fuse box and only has power when the key is in it. Will probably add a switch for the bed but looking for switches that only have a light when flipped on. Thanks for the advice though, Itll slip my mind till I read these again.

    I'll have to look into writing into the fuse box. Did you just add a fuse? Was it pretty simple?

    It was several years ago but it was pretty simple from what I remember. Pretty sure we added a fuse. I will look whenever I start the wiring.

    What do you want the switch to do? Is it for emergency power cutoff?

    How do you like the K&N CAI? Do you notice any difference in performance with it?

    I typically hear they're not worth the money but that's usually from people who don't have superchargers

    Would you consider shipping it? Fastenal and greyhound will ship stuff like that pretty reasonably.

    Wanted to use a 3 way switch and have in cab winch controls. Seen others do it but wasn't sure how. Pretty sure you tap into the controller wiring for the winch and do it thag way but wanted to see what others said
