    Anyone have any experience with S-tech switch systems? Looks comparable to spod/switch pro. Seems like mostly Jeep guys are running it with good feedback. Price point looks good as well. They have a 4 and 6 switch panel as well as a 6 button universal panel kind of like a switch pro panel.

    Great find! Had no idea existed! Seriously considering this as my switch pro 8100 is full and I don’t want to spend $$$ on another one.

    I’ll be installing it this weekend on my 5th gen 4runner.

    Interesting. Looks exactly the same. I think stech comes with a 3 year warranty vs 1 year from slim.

    Have any of you installed this in your Tacoma? How was it getting the plug through the firewall? Where did you place the switch pad? How do you like it so far? Any tips for those looking at these?

    I have got it half installed. Used the bracket that came with it and found a spot it fits, right behind the air box, where you don't have to drill or anything. Just get a couple nuts to use on one side of the bracket, and for the ground, and the other side of the bracket will fit under the air box bolt... hope I am explaining this good enough. I bent the bracket just a little bit and it fits in perfect. Wires run cleanly around back of engine bay.

    Where did you connect the small red wire in the engine bay?
