    Installed mine yesterday after my posi-taps were delivered. It is so wonderful having the switch illuminated. I should have got one years ago when I first saw this thread. Thanks for making this latest batch!

    Thanks for the tip about posi-taps! :thumbsup: I could not find them anywhere locally so I purchased a kit from Amazon with several sizes. Hopefully they lower the price some day but they are still worth using in places where the wires will be subjected to bumps and vibrations and/or places not easily accessible. I know I won't have to worry about the posi-taps behind my climate control failing. I have a few of the old style clamp wire taps under my hood and every so often a couple of them need to be jiggled a bit to restore contact. I'll probably end up replacing those with posi-taps now.

    [QUOTE="OldManTan";9929121]Don't be a wuss. :D Start the truck, and install it. Not like you have to wire anything from outside the cab.[/QUOTE]

    Ok ok, it was up to 20* so it's done. I did the solder method and everything went smoothly. The only thing I'm unhappy with is the connections of the light wires to the factor grn, grn/w. Like the op, I stripped a small section out and soldered, then electrical taped. A posi-tap would be a much better choice here as when you solder, the coating on the factory wire melts back quite a bit, and it's difficult to get a good tape wrap up in there. Ultimately, I'd like to unclip the factory wire from the plug so shrink wrap tubing could be slid in place, shrunk and then reinserted in the plug. I tried, but couldn't get the pin unclipped from its' plug. Maybe I'll revisit this when it get warmer out as I have cup holder LEDs to install. Otherwise very happy with it. Thanks again OP, great product and clear, easy to follow instructions. :thumbsup:.
