    To me the tiny house thing was crazy. If they would spend a couple of weeks in a camper or better yet a tent before they bought a tiny house, they would say screw that.

    You have any more pics of your tailgate spoiler? I hate grabbing the paint when I lift the tailgate and usually try to lift it by the top cover but it’s awkward. Is the spoiler attached we’ll enough to grab and close the tailgate?

    First thing I did! It’s a window, not a billboard. Huge thumbs up to my dealer for abiding by my request not to put any dealer stickers on, too.

    Put some new Toyo Open Country R/Ts on it.

    Stocks still had SOME life left but I am at 40 k miles and they were now 4 years old!
    They look great and I have noticed an MPG hit since this Saturday when I had them put on BUT I don't care.

    I'll try and explain. The new switch I have is ch4x4 (pic posted) I have a typical light bar wiring harness, pic I posted a few post back with inline fuse and relay. The harness has the typical push button switch (pic posted) that I cut to wire to new switch. I have an add as fuse already that I was going to use on the tail light fuse so the new switch would light up when the lights were on. I watched a few videos on how to wire with the 3 wires from the wiring harness to the 4 wires on the new switch. I know I need to add the add a fuse to the 4th wire to the tail light fuse for it to light up when the lights are on. With all of that said, when I attach the wires to the battery the new light switch lights up without the add a fuse being used and attached. I'm assuming that's because I'm wired directly to the battery. Do I need to use another add a fuse to avoid the light on the switch not to be lit up? If so which wire and where to attach it? Is it possibly the blue wire? Now I'm exhausted typing all of this on my phone...lol.

    Sorry I didn’t read it all, the ch4x4 is wired like this (not my pic and can’t remember who to give credit to);

    Red 2 goes to your fuse tap (cig lighter outlet?) and 4 goes to a ground.

    Edit:
    If you want a slightly more complicated install that will allow the switch to dim using the dash cluster adjustment, you would wire it as below.

    That "looks" like an Air Design tailgate spoiler. If so, it mounts with double sided tape.

    That's how I had everything except I had not connected the wire to tap into the fuse box yet. I stopped because the switch was lit up without the truck being on which isn't what I wanted. So if I attach the red 2 to the fuse box will it override the switch being lit while its wired to the battery or will it still be lit all the time? I only want the switch lit up when the lights are on, not while the truck is off all day long.

    Where is red 2 wired to now? If it’s the battery or a constant powered fuse, then yes.

    Levelling kit and new rims/tires; Cali raised stealth light bar and an anytime front camera.

    What “leveling” kit? Any pix of it and the wheels and tires? If you haven’t noticed, we like pix in these parts.
