    So it has been a day, and the puddle pods are still available!

    Hmm, don't know about that. I think you could always ditch the T harness and splice it into the bed light circuit by hand.

    @MESO I installed my puddle lights yesterday. I noticed the mold will not sit flush in the mirror because the back of the light makes contact with a gusset inside the mirror. I just trimmed the gusset so that it would fit but I didnt know if you were aware or not.

    Depending on mirror model, there may be an extra plastic rib that you will need to trim out.
    I recall it being on the instructions on Meso's site.

    True. I've got some high dollar accessories higher on the list. With his stuff though... If you want it, you buy when you can, so...

    Waited for these for a year, even then, I really actually wanted the BroPro version. I still love them.
    He only makes 1-3 per drop.
    No time to think, just trying to get to the check out page in under 5 secs.

    Thanks for the pic, and very clean install btw. If you look at that switch on the bottom right, it’s longer than the ones beside it. As I understand it, the MESO switch will be short like the Auto High Beams and Stock Inverter.

    I just got a set and was surprised they’re still available! I was up in the mountains for a couple days and just figured I’d miss out again. Super stoked right now :bananadance:

    I see, I'm pretty sure @MESO will make a bracket on the upper slot for us. Right, Stew? Lol

    If not, I'll rig something in that slot. We'll cross that path when the drop is near. Heck, I'll see if I can help Stew make one!! Lol

    - Here is the panel @MESO has on his site. But I'm pretty sure he'll make a new batch to accommodate the puddle switch..

    This is the custom Meso switch plate that I have. I will be removing the auto high beam switch and replacing it with the puddle switch once it's available.
