    An STD? That’s pretty gross but it’s your birthday.

    Now the OCD part is kicking in. I would prefer this method because of the use of the ACC power source. By using an accessory circuit for a control power source, you can't inadvertently leave your lights on. But it does add more complex wiring.

    My puddle light switch and wiring will be very straight forward and effective. Should work with DSIM’s module as well.

    Sorry, I'm having a little trouble following. I see 2 = Common 12v (+). 3 = puddle lites?. 1 = cab lite's?. And I'm assuming 4 = 12v (-) for the backlite on the switch?

    Kings, 275/70/17, a few custom items, lots of Meso mods.
    For all those who have aftermarket mirrors and want Meso puddles. They fit perfect except for a gap on the mounting side. Mine are from A1 Auto and here is a solution. I installed them on a set of these mirrors and taped off nice even lines. Then added Black RTV Silicone making sure it I I filled down inside the gap. As you know this stuff is also an adhesive so even if the clips on this end don't seat well it's not going anywhere. From the front view you can barely see it. They work great.

    Am I the only one that checks this thread, and the MESO website like 5 times a day just to make sure I don't miss the next drop. Even though I've signed up to be notified by email hahahaha. I also check the ultimate turn signals as well on the website

    This is very well documented. It actually appears in the DSM V as MESO induced anxiety syndrome (MIAS).

    I have had the puddles staring at me since the first drop but haven't installed them yet. Just waiting for that switch to drop so I can throw these things on.

    I have a set I need to install but still check this thread all the time. That's mainly because I want the switch for them.

    Working the details out on the switch, I'll have a final sample soon.
    Puddles will drop later this week, we just have to finish testing all the harnesses.

    @MESO Hey installed a bunch of your goodies over the past week. Total tail stage 2 and puddle lights. Now I notice both my map and dome lights aren’t working. Puddles are though. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance
