    You can try to go through Auxbeam to see if they will replace with their warranty. Or you can contact the Vendor you bought from in the beginning as long as they are a Registered Auxbeam Vendor.

    It's actually not even auxbeam, some other brand, identical to my 6 button one though.

    I'll figure it out

    The same shit everyone else has.
    Hopefully I’m not missing it, but I’m looking for a panel to flush mount one of the 8 buttons switch panels.

    Ive googled all over and can’t find just a blank panel.

    Similar to this -

    upload_2022-10-27_15-38-45.jpg

    but without all the extras stuff - basically just a flat panel with the pocket for the mount.

    I wanna change how mines mounted but can’t find the type of bezel I need.

    Its currently velcro’d to the headliner which was supposed to be a temporary. It’s been a temporary solution for almost 2 years now….

    I wanna move it to the sunglass holder like this

    upload_2022-10-27_16-24-42.jpg

    but flush mount it into the door similar to how this sits

    Welp. Figured it out.

    Used scrap 1/4” and 1/16” ABS plastic.

    I need to tweak it a little bit but I’m way happier with this location than Velcro’d to the headliner.

    I like mine where it's comfortable and easy to reach. Neither of those look like the place

    Originally I had it mounted on the cubby down by my right knee, but if I slouched even the slightest bit I would hit my knee against it. Got tired of that. To me this works pretty good. Up, out of the way and directly behind my ditch light so it's not blocking any more window.

    Quick question.

    Do any of these let you run a triggered relay? Say I wanted ditch lights but ONLY if the high beams were on. Can you turn on one of the circuits but have it trigger by a different circuit?
