Switch Pros 9100 install and BS thread

Can I bother you for a picture of that drivers side tuck?

 

I’ve cleaned some stuff up since this pic but you get the idea

 

Finally got my powertrays mount this week that was on back order for the longest time. Got it installed today and cleaned up the wiring. Only a hidden bumper light bar and ditch lights wired up so far, but there will eventually be rear facing scene lights, a roof rack light bar and possibly some aux reverse lights yet to come. Dave’s headlight harness is where I tapped the high beam signal for trigger 1 and the parking light signal for backlight dimming. Ignition wire is run to the 10A inj fuse with a fuse tap. Everything is in loom and heat shrink to keep the install as clean as possible. I’m trying to decide if I should leave the controller harness coiled, or cut the length back so it is a better fit. I’m thinking I’ll leave it coiled so I don’t mess with the factory sheathing. (Not sure why the first picture is sideways, it’s upright on my phone.)

 

Hey man! Who makes that tray? I have a M/T too. Thanks!

 

Those battery terminals from taco garage?

 

I've finished re-wiring all my lights into Switch Pro.

I have 3 lights that have amber backlighting, and I want to put them to one switch on the switch pros.

Does anyone know of a 3 to 1 connector or similar I could use to connect them cleanly? I know I can cut and solder/heatshrink them all, but that's a pretty big joint. I really should have just used another bus bar but didn't think ahead enough.

 

for 3 into 1, I will usually put 2 wires into one side of a butt connector, the 3rd into the other side with the single wire out to the switch-pros. this helps with keeping the crimps even/secure on a butt connector. with good 3:1 double wall adhesive heat shrink on top of that, it should be a lot more weather sealed than a buss bar would be.

 

Great idea, didn’t even cross my mind! Ty

 

Is this what you are describing? Not trying to steal your thunder, just trying to visualize before I make a mistake for misunderstanding.

 

Morning TW. I searched this thread but couldn't find - so apologize if this is redundant (likely so).

I have a SwithPro 9100 installed. I am simply looking for the best/easiest trigger source to trigger my roof rack BD Rock Lights with interior/dome lighting. The rock lights run off the 9100, standard on/off push button config ATM. Is there a good T Tap or Add-A-Fuse source on the engine side of the firewall where the pink wire/9100 already are? Or do I need to pull the pink wire through the firewall and add-a-fuse off the dome circuit on the secondary cabin fuse panel? Or something else entirely?

Thanks in advance.

 

I think you are going to need to use something like the DSIM module as the dome lights are a negative trigger. See here https://dsimsolutions.com/products/domerock-v4 Then you'd hook the 9100 trigger to the DSIM.

But maybe someone else has a better way.

 

I use Metri-Pack 280 connectors.

 

Ordered mine today.. super excited!

 

Sorry for the delayed reply, but yes. That is exactly what I meant.

 

Has anyone mounted the switch panel on the head liner?

 

Yes, @Shellshock (see his build thread for photos). Looks nice too.

 

Thank you but I am looking to install the switch panel like this.

 

That's the same spot, he just has a sunroof so the headliner is shaped a bit different

 

I did this for my Tacoma. Made some little brackets that slip over the headliner at the sun roof. Need to make new ones a bit longer though.



on my previous f150 I just put holes in the headliner and used the mounting hardware.

 

I see now , thank you.
