    fuse/relay panel is done. switches are pretty much done as well. have the ground and dash light tap done, wires to the relays are just about done as well. Looked at the compressor and found that the switch isnt electronic like most, it rotates and pushes a spring to complete the circuit or something like that, not 100%. found I can hook a viair pressure switch/relay to it and it will be good. need a few more things to finish the wiring to the compressor and fogs but otherwise its pretty much done. I'm hoping to have it all done this weekend.

    Thanks guys. Had some issues with the wiring, no idea what the problem was but I pulled everything and it solved itself at some point

    tomorrow I'm going to get the compressor wiring done and ready for when the viair switch gets here and also hook up the fogs.

    Couple questions for ya as I am a total idiot when it comes to wiring:
    1) Did you tie all the grounds together for all the switches?
    2) Where did you terminate the ground to?
    3) When running power to the switches, you need a power for the lights (which can be run together IIRC) and one to each relay correct?
    4) Wanna help tear into mine? Lol

    All grounds are together. Terminated to the screw that holds up the sun visor. Yep, need power to the switches, all tied together.
    Bring yo stuff to next meet and I'll help ya get started. Pick up 14 gauge wire black and red. 10-12 gauge female connectors. 14 gauge male and female connectors. 14 gauge ring terminals. Some heat shrink if you want it all heat shrunk on the inside, I didn't heat shrink mine. and a fuse tap to tap the dash lights. Obviously need the trim and switches.

    Only thing I'll really need help with is pulling the headliner. I have the trim and switches. I just wasn't sure on how to hook everything up.

    I was just unsure if how many wires I'd actually need running up there. So it's 1 for the power to light the switches and 1 for each switch to the relay. Not as bad as I thought. I have a 6 switch blank I'm gonna put up there but only 2 switches at this point. I wanna run all the wiring at once so I don't have to pull everything out again
