    Thanks. I was hoping there was on in the engine bay, but I guess I'll go into the cab for that.

    I’m sure there’s a fuse that comes on and off with ACC, I just don’t know what one

    Update… This mount type not gonna work. Already smacked my knee against it a few times. Gotta mount it flush to panel.. was trying to avoid drilling into it.

    Also was hesitant pushing cord thru firewall but with some stiff romex wire, was able to push it in very easily.

    Question! I'm killer OCD and like to keep my cab as clean as possible. It killed me the way my dad drilled into his pristine dash of his 2004 GMC Seirra to add a rinky dink princess auto switch for a light bar. I died a little inside and void I'd never do that and always find a clean solution for my switches.

    ANYWAYS the question is. Does anyone know if the dimensions of the SwitchPro panel is similar to the AuxBeam switch panel? I was looking at adding this as I like the switches being slightly tilted toward me instead of straight on the sunglass holder itself. https://mesocustoms.com/collections...-overhead-switch-panel?variant=19983117418609 As most of you know this is for the SwitchPro but if it came down to me running a dremel to widen it out a bit to make it fit then so be it. Any thoughts? Anyone ever do this? Thanks!

    I looked at this before. I believe it's the lay out of the box itself that you plug your lights and what not into. The single side opens up on just one side where the double sided is a 50 50 split opening on either side. I plan on going with the single cause it's cheaper and I plan on putting it up against the fender so it might be tough to open it from the other side.

    I thought I used your ash tray switch mount for mine, but I’m not seeing it on your site, maybe it wasn’t yours or you removed it I guess.

    we still sell a ashtray switch mount, but yours might been a one off as we do a lot of custom things too.

    Shout out to www.paranoidfabrications.com for the panel. Great prices, got the blank panel with no crawl control, had to cut off a little bit to fit my manual transmission.
