    I got the whole switch from OTRATTW. I have the wiring info in this thread as Proforce and Rich were a huge help (in fact the only way I could get them installed right) with the install. They did a diagram and explained electrical ninja shit in easy to use terms.

    By install, do you mean the switch part? I just removed the console and trim piece around the shifter, measured the hole (rectangle) I would need and drilled the corners, dremeled the sides, and filed it smooth, inserted switch, wired it all up with the link I posted and then let the money roll in, LOLz.

    x2 I installed the bracket yesterday and I'm very pleased. The factory location of the mirror has always bothered me and now it's a thing of the past!

    For stuff like that I go to Home Depot, Walmart or wherever and get a Paint pen. http://www.amazon.com/Krylon-KSCP90...41332089&sr=1-1&keywords=krylon+paint+pen+red

    They work amazing on anything. I use to use them on my JEEP to repaint my white letters on my tires also. I used a green one for my engine cover to paint the logos

    red wire from light number one was spliced to red wire of light number two, then that wire was run to the relay, relay to the switch. black wires from lights were grounded. Essentially that was it. and it all worked, there is some more wires off the relay but i forgot where they go. Check my trhead in the lighting area for more info

    Real good. In the summer the sun turned it brownish after three months or so but I just sat on the ground and did it again.


    Here are my Swampers I did on my Wrangler
