If you mount the switchpro flush it really looks factory, very happy with how it turned out.

That looks sharp. Really clean install man. I do like the SwitchPro, that price tag tho....

Who did you pick those switches up from. Very nice installation, super OEM looking.

I got the switches installed a while back, and finally got them wired up a few months ago.

I ended up going with a bussman weatherproof fuse box from Concours Specialties

Those are the Ford Upfitter switches for the F250 and up. He's done a hell of a lot of plastic and fiberglass work to make that fit and finish so good.

@SlipR35 Looks great, but our Twins cubby is deeper and the switches way farther out of hand. You have to lean over and down to hit them, hence my positioning of my switch panel mocked up here:

But with @logistixs thread about moving the 4x4 switch, the kick panel by the headlight switch could be a place to locate an SPOD or a Feniex controller.

I am quite happy with my Switch Pros. The price tag is high, but the quality is worth every penny. With the surface mount, only a little modification was needed to move the USB/aux plug slightly.

I did these myself. I used a set of Ford switches from a project at work and wired them up myself.

Moved the 4x4 switch to the center console, put all the lights together in one place.

I decided to bite some style from MadSci and give the Ford upfitter switches a shot. I had to do some extra modification to keep the depressions on the sides since I do not have heated seats. I totally get MadSci not wanting to make these for people as it took FOREVER!!!

Look damn sharp! I've been thinking about doing that for a while......hmmmm......

If you want to talk in more detail about how you wired this up Id love to discuss it.

Now that's one hell of a first post. Nice work.

Oh sweet, I installed mine in the same place.

I tried to fit my spod controller in that spot, but it would have caused more of a headache than I felt it was worth. Decided to just use the brake controller location

I actually just got it wired up today. What would you like to know?

Hey Craig, I'd like to know if you ran the light for the switches to turn on with the auto light sensor and work with the dimmer switch? If so which wire did you tap into? Thanks!

Looks great, It would be nice if you laser scan it. It looks pretty good in the pic with the paint can. If you could laser scan it into a computer, you could tweek it. This looks a perfect size to 3D print. I would buy a 3D printed version for some of those switches.

I did. What I did was splice into the yellow wire on the back on the headlight switch harness. This illuminates the words "AUX 1, etc." when the lights are on. The orange lights on the tips of the switched illuminate when the switches are turned on.

Thank you for the info sir!

Here are some photos of how the lights work.

Gwhipp, how did you remove that piece to install those switches. Would like to do the same. Really clean look. Nice job.

Slow and steady wins the race. I used plastic pry tools to pop off the panel that holds the seat heater buttons. There are a total of 6 clips that hold it in place. It’ll feel like the clip will break, but eventually it will pop off.

Then removing the lower panel is the easy part. Just a couple screws and it comes out.

I chose to mount my switches on the front of the panel instead of cutting it out and recessing it. Mainly because there are supports behind it and I’m lazy. Ha!
