    Awesome to see everyone using the stealth knob to it’s full potential and what other functions you can run off of it! The PAC TR7 Is an awesome little tool that can do latched, pulsed, reverses polarity output, etc. your imagination is the limit:D

    -how do the button clicks feel?
    -How do you like the placement of the buttons?
    -overall fit and finish of the knobs ones installed?

    Should work either way. I have a 2nd one coming tomorrow that I'll confirm this with the brown wire. Any reason to use negative input instead?

    Simple.
    No need to tap any circuit in the cab. Just the one for the PAC...

    Fair. I was tapping in anyways for the other switches so it worked for me, but I'll update the instructions to call out that alternative

    Honestly, have to say that the fit & finish of these is second to none from the originals. I really appreciate how the corners are rounded/tapered instead of sharp like the original. This really helps with the feel and comfort. Also, the button feels much more responsive likely due to these buttons fitting much better than the original. Thanks so much for the improvements on an already great product!!!!

    my driver side button click isn't as "pronounced" as my pass side one, but maybe it's cuz I had the OG knob and the groove was already notched out a bit more for the V1 button. These revised buttons are definitely spot on! Definitely feels & fits OEM, I was cutting my thumb on the V1 button w/ the squared corner :rofl:

    Another top notch MESO goodie! :thumbsup:

    The PAC TR7 might be one of the most nifty little electronics I've messed around with in a little while. I ordered a second one just because I know I'll find a use for it. I'm really tempted to see if I can find a way to have it receive the remote inputs so I could trigger stuff on the unlock button.

    Anyways back to feedback..
    - how do the button clicks feel? pretty good. not sure if they all feel the same, but the click on left side is much better that the click on the right side. right isnt as prevalent of a click
    - How do you like the placement of the buttons? placement seems good. feel like I'll have more of an opinion on this after I have it for a little while
    - overall fit and finish of the knobs ones installed? seems great

    Yes, their directions say to program it before fully connecting it. I have an extra fuse box that I powered from a jump pack and wired to an old light for the testing part. You can use any 12v power though, just need 2 positive and 1 negative/ground to program it.
