    Apparently the vendor had an IATF16949 audit last week and it delayed the harnesses a little. As of now shipping is pushed out to next week. Exploring a different way to get everyone switches. It may be a discount code of some kind at CH4x4 so you can just order directly. I am also looking at other options.

    Just an update for anyone looking to order their switch...I followed up with AOB on my switch and they got back to me right away. The original notifications went to junk mail and in fact already delivered(GF had it). Pretty quick turn around from them considering I’m in Ontario Canada

    Yeah, they were good to deal with whenever I ordered anything.

    FWIW, I ordered my switch from AOB (June 22) and received it 4 days later. I would give them a call and see what's going on.

    EDIT: Just saw your follow up - disregard.

    Roughly whats the current wait time if I put in an order?

    Also wasn't sure if any How-To vids were floating around in other threads I may have missed :).

    This does look really awesome though and I'll be saving for one hands down. Seems like a no brainer when it comes to saving my clutch from pre-mature wear.

    **Edit to add**

    Also I'm assuming these kits work on all 3rd gens?

    I may have missed that somewhere but figured I'd double check.

    There are no how to videos. Just the pics in the 1st Post.

    The 2LM applies to all 3rd Gens so far.

    As of right now, if you want to source your own switch (fastest option), about 2 weeks for you to have it in your hands is my best guess. Switch ordering has become a thorn in my side. I expected it to be much easier than having a completely custom harness built from scratch.... :frusty:

    Haha! It is never what you expect.

    You're almost there. It's all good!

    :cheers:

    I still don't have the reverse camera and garage door opener wired in yet. Fuuuuck! It is nice seeing the switches there though.

    I’ll just order a custom CH4X4 switch if that works. How much did we pay for switches? $15? Could we just get that refunded and I’ll order one myself?

    Thanks for all the work

    I will send you a partial refund shortly. :thumbsup:

    As I posted a week or so ago, that is an option to anyone that doesn't want to wait.

    If you would like to order your own switch and receive a refund of $15 please send me a PM.

    Those of us that have paid the $50 deposit I'm assuming your not going to refund $15 but just charge us $60 if we choose not to wait for the switch?

    Correct, but I will update your invoice and my switch ordering spreadsheet. If you do not let me know and I do end up ordering you a switch you will still be receiving one and paying for it.

    Do you still have space left for the switch? Mine is full without a 2wd switch. The two empty holes I had are filled with the led light bar switch and my rear camera switch.

    By the way they both work.:boink:

    Hahaha! Good work getting yours hooked up. I'm a total slacker.

    Oh, and I don't even really have an aux light yet unless you count this guy:

    It isn't just the T case but also the front driveline / diff. Yes, though. This will help with the monthly exercise.

    Do be aware that some of the exercise is about keeping the actuators free. The ADD actuator will not be working with the 2LM. So, you still will want to cycle the system from time to time without hitting the 2LM button, including dropping it into low range. That part you can essentially do in your driveway barely moving.

    Yep! That is part of the reason that I want it. I've been struggling to get out on even a day trip since spring.

    I'll give it some time and see if you can track down the switch.
