Switch Panel GB

In for manual version.

 

I've been all over their site trying to find it with no luck. I just sent them a pic in an email asking to ID it. I'll reply back when I hear something.

 

I've been out visiting family so give me a sec to catch up on posts. I've gotten everyone's orders together so far and just waiting for the last of the holidays to pass to close.

Thanks for the support everyone!

 

I've looked into making this as well. The Bluetooth option is tricky. What if you forget your phone? Or if you need to turn off something quickly and your phone is locked?

Additionally iPhones have a huge market share and they require Apple approved Bluetooth devices which complicates the hardware a bit.

When I have some more time I'm going to look into this. I have some good ideas, I just need to develop the board and get a prototype printed.

 

Working on it! Hopefully I can wrap this up soon.

 

placed order other day, forgot to update on here. sub'd

 

Ordered thanks for the good deal

 

Rick,

Sorry I missed your post. I don't have a pic of the sides, but the front and back look identical. You can install it in either direction. Here's what it looks like.

 

K good news and bad news. The bad news is that Scosche got back to me and cannot identify the plug from the pic. They sent me a link to their 240 page catalog to find something similar.

The good news is that I found a 15-pin and a 9-pin harness on Amazon:
9-pin:

$7 CES 9 Pin Male/Female Quick Disconnect Harness, 12"es, White, 18 Gauge, SATA, 9 Pins, 10 Amps, Indoor, MPC9

Thanks Iggy...

 

U did not like my pictures I sent you

 

Iggy thanks for catching my error. Noticed the refund and just placed my order for the correct items

 

Lol... yeah...thanks Miles...

 

Just a quick update everyone.

The GB will close on Monday and I will order all the parts then. I'm already on the fabricators schedule so I just need to give him the total order amount.

I'm taking a quick break from the 8-12 and will be in Banff, so getting back I will package everything and ship them out.

Thanks for your patience everyone! Happy New Year!

 

Cool thanks Iggy.

 

Iggy. How did you run your wiring?

 

In the engine compartment I have a rely box like the one skygear makes. I highly recommend one since they make wiring up accessories very easy.

So from the box to the cab I have 7 cables coming in through the large grommet under the master brake cylinder (1 is + via fuse from the box, 1 is - to battery, 5 are are going to each relay).

In the kick panel I have a micro relay box, with two special micro relays. The power wires are wired to the replays. One supplies power to the switches which in turn power the relays in the engine bay and the other supplies power to the illumination portion of the switches.

When there is ignition power the switches and relay are hot, turning off the car kills power to everything. When the lights are on, the other relay kicks on and supplies power to the illumination LED's on the switches.

Here's what it looks like from the back of the panel.

 

Also, to my Canadian brothers, I haven't been able to stop by to the post office to see how much shipping is.

I am ordering extra panels to sell at non GB prices but if you PM me that you will take one pending shipping costs I will set one aside at the GB price. This is for Canadians only though.

 

I've shipped there first class and its about $6-10

 

I wish I was skilled enough to do that. But I know mine will look nowhere near that good
