    If you get your hands on an oem foglight switch, you can just remove the blank for where it normally goes on the left side of the dash. The harness should be behind the blank like mine was ( 2009 base 4x4). I just plugged the oem switch in and went to the bumper and removed the foglight covers, and the aftermarket foglight housings bolted in perfectly. The oem wiring should be tucked somewhere right above the foglight openings on each side.

    I'd be curious as to how tough the install is. Particularly the front. Gonna be doing 4.88 and a rear ARB in a few months and trying to decide if I want to go the same route you are or just pay to have it all installed.

    The rear is gonna be pretty simple to swap. The front will be a little more involved but I put the other carrier in when I did the 4x4 conversion so i know what's involved. Probably take me a full day to do both.

    On our trucks, the relay for the cigarette lighters is behind the fuse panel. Undo three 10mm nuts and you can move the panel forward enough to get to it. Pop it out, and take the cover off. Solder the connections and reinstall. Now you’ve got always on cigarette lighters! Just did this today so I can power my fridge in the back seat.

    Being electrically challenged, I would need a little more info, which wires and where to solder them. Thank you!

    See quote below. Nothing involved with wiring at all, only the relay itself.

    You won’t be disappointed. The design of the legs and how it mounts to the truck is pretty freaking stout. I’m stoked on it for sure. And he’s doing a tax sale right now. 20% off.
