    Does anyone make a momentary switch that would fit in a blank space to the left of steering column? Or even in center console blank? Looking for an OEM looking switch for a trigger to a delay relay. Similar to fog light button but releases when not depressed - non-latching. Would prefer one with either one or two LEDs. 2015 DCSB

    Could you use another trigger instead of a pushbutton? Something in the truck... The delay relay piqued my interest. What is it you want to do?

    My plan is to install bed lights hooked to a delay relay. Want to put a trigger button in the dash and one in the rear side panel of the bed. Trigger will turn on the lights for a pre-programmed time and then turn them off after said time just in case I forget to turn them off. I can also program the timer to shut off if the trigger is depress a second time and the timer is still counting down.

    Cool. I used a magnet alarm switch on my bed lights. They turn on when the tailgate is dropped. I also have a circuit that keeps them off during the day.

    You could use the dome light, "On," to trigger the relay. Put an LED in the cab is you want to know if they're on

    58 Siesta - I've sent a message to AOB to see if I can get a LED Bed Lights switch cover on a momentary switch. Like the horn switch.

    kgarrett11 - Nice set up. I look at OTRATTW for over an hour last night and didn't see the momentary switches until I looked again tonight. Also have a message into them to see if they can supply a bed light rocker for the momentary switch

    Thanks to both
