Whew, glad I bought the ‘18 3500 with those up fitter switches already installed. I could never be trusted taking my dash off even that far. Good job!

@RalphBucci 3 года назад

It was intimidating at first because I’ve never taken a dash off of a vehicle but luckily everything worked out!!

@mcham0846 Год назад

Glad I found this video. I was unsure if it would fit on the fusebox. I don't wanna waste time driving into the firewall

@gregbarthol5381 4 года назад

Well done!! I was cringing as you were 'persuading' that center panel...lol Liked the way you explained what it was necessary to unscrew then jumped to after you've done that step. Liked your cheats as well!

@RalphBucci 4 года назад

Thanks man!! I was cringing too as I was “gently” yanking 🤣🤣🤣. Would have made for a really exciting video if I had broke it though!!

@DaveDeVault 4 года назад

Back in 2014 I spent close to three months trying to figure this out for my 2013 RAM Sport. Tracking down the switch, finding someone to make that power distribution center, and finding wiring diagrams. I was close to $300 into it when I threw in the towel and sold the whole lot. NOW I find this video.

@liljohn309 2 года назад

If you get the appropriate kit it should tell you how to wire everything at the trucks are set up for from the factory you might have to bring it to the dealer to flash something I’m not 100% sure on that but I know there’s a designated spot to mount that box instead of screwing it to the fuse panel I think it’s on the passenger side firewall were supposed to go

@RalphBucci 2 года назад

I decided to mount it where I mounted it for easy access. You can pretty much mount it anywhere you want to where there’s room!!

@MooreAdventure 3 года назад

Where you ran your wires through that little black cover with the bolts sticking out. If you unscrew that it open up the fire wall where you can run wires through. It looks like you have 2 wires already running through it

That's interesting. I thought the truck was pre-wired under the hood for Aux switches. Maybe I'm confusing the Ram with the Ford.

@1goldenson 5 лет назад

So is this kit different from the factory one you can get?

@RalphBucci 5 лет назад

If I’m not mistaken, it is almost exactly like the factory kit. This part is a Mopar part so I’m assuming it’s a factory kit. My truck didn’t come with any aux buttons but I’ve heard that some of the trucks do.
