    In the process of installing a Cali Raised Accessory 8 Switch and a small toggle switch. It’s slowly coming together. Just waiting on a 3 foot long traction control harness to show up so I can relocate the button to the middle of the dash, but for now I just tucked it behind the dash. I Spent yesterday evening wiring, drilling holes and gluing everything. Bought the waterproof box off Amazon for $20. It feels good knowing everything will be kept dry. Can’t wait to finish the install today. Will post more pics when finished :)

    Nice, did the wiring not allow separate power for the LEDs so you could use the dash circuit for that?

    where did you get the relocation harness? I'm in the need to relocate the rear diff e-locker on my OR (button sits beside the tract control button on the over head console) since i did some work on the overhead panel.

    also your setup is looking fantastic so far :thumbsup: i never considered the waterproof box when i built mine, but i do recommend it since i learned how much dust gets up in that location

    Thank you :) I’m planning ahead and doing a lot of the preventative maintenance now so I don’t have to deal with it later on in time. I learned what to do and what not to do from my previous vehicle lol :p

    And I bought it from Accessorides. They made it custom for myself and a few other TW members. If they don’t have what your looking for they can make it. This is the link: https://accessorides.com/products/t...ma-2016-2019-plug-play?variant=32560591863854

    Doesn't seem they have the rear locker switch relocation, but i do see the window and traction control as options which is great.
    Glad to hear they can do custom work as well, I will ping em a message about it! Thanks a bunch bud.

    Thinking a head saves a lot of pain in the ass moments later, good on you, Have fun with the wiring!

    Man you really went for it, cant wait to see the 37s. Also just as a safety heads up in case you didn't know already, there was a recall on some Pittsburgh Jack stands from HF because they were faulty and at risk of failing under load. You can look up the serial numbers associated with the faulty stands (if you can't find them I have them somewhere and could get them for you) and make sure yours aren't at risk of failing. HF is supposed to be exchanging them for new ones.

    Got rid of one more piece of chrome. Hated that staring me in the face. I may Plastidip all the trim rings if this holds up ok. They want $20 for the decal that goes over the Toyota emblem!

    As far as I can tell, no it doesn’t. 2 power and 2 ground wires tied together to a single connector. Other side of connector has a single power and ground. If they had designed this to allow LED dimming, I don’t imagine they would have tied the wires into a single connector.

    Do you mind linking your relay setup? I am running a raspberry pi zero to a 4 channel relay, but I want to take the raspberry pi out so I can just run one of those bluetooth relays.

    I kinda felt that way when I realized my daughter and I both color coordinate accessories for our respective toys (her barbies / my truck). I then realized that I now enjoy shopping for truck parts as much as my wife shops for shoes and purses. I swear TW is secretly trying to feminize all of us! :eek:

    Have you had any issues with leaking under the bedrails with the way the soptopper bends them inwards toward the bed? Mine looks similar, but we haven't had any substantial rain in months.

    The 4x relay I have is wireless. It comes with a fob that I keep in my centre console. The relay is wired so I can control lights even if the truck is off and locked.

    Ok gotcha, I have found bluetooth ones online where you run an app on your phone, and my head unit is android so I can just run it on there.
