    Wouldn't you like to know!
    I'm actually in the middle of doing this too...wiring a blue seas panel on a powertray...wiring up ditch lights, rear bumper lights, and camper shell lights. I am having to go back and learn how to wire a dang relay because they are recommended when installing these with a factory style toyota switch.

    Mainly because those switches aren't rated for the amperage of the accessory. I like using 20amp rated switches.

    Any TX surfers following this? If so, did you make it down to the coast this weekend? My (one -- always available, rarely used) free pass at home is to head down when the stars align for the extremely inconstent gulf coast swell, but i believe Cristobal delivered yesterday in PortA and Bob Hall. Unfortunately, i'm out of town for a few weeks and missed this one but I'd love to see/hear about anyone that scored.

    Not the same but Im not super handy with electrical, bought the anytime camera and front camera.... blew a fuse. Took it in since the truck is still under warranty. Not sure what I did but I want to learn vs having someone install it.
