I run 1-3 for my three spot/flood/fog pods in the bumper and 4 for my 30" Baja grill light bar.
I'm going to run 5 for some Baja light pods on my back bumper soon too.

Getting the sense that lots of use them primarily for lights? Me, too, but I'm saving Aux #2 for the air compressor to power the train horn, or pneumatically-actuated gatling gun under the front left bumper.
Aux #1 - BD Squadron Pro Spots mounted in lower (center) grill
Aux #2 - just in case
Aux #3 - BD Squadron driving combo - white
Aux #4 - Diode Dynamic SS3 SAE - Amber
Aux #5 - BD Squadron wide cornering - Amber
Aux #6 - BD S2 wide cornering - white (mounted in rear)

The point is, have fun and make it yours.

OK, train horn? I didn't even know I needed one. Fess up with details.
i have the katrina 5 bell train horn. i could only fit 3 of the trumpets though because of space so i used the smallest, the middle, and the largest one. they are mounted above my skid plate.

these are my additional aux switches. oem aux 1 powers all these switches so it acts as a master switch. turn off aux 1 and all the switches turn off

So in my planning for my light additions to my future truck, it crossed my mind that there are 6 auxiliary switches. It has been pointed out that just with my lights, I'll need an additional switch panel (see link). So I'm wonder, while planning, how many and what do people use the auxiliary switches for? A winch is all I can think of. Retractable tonneau cover? Auto tailgate? Educate me. Thanks

I don’t think you guys have seen our fully Patented Switch panels for OEM center consoles. You can add 3 Rocker Switches or get the solid top version and add up to 6 small rocker switches. These are a lot less than the kit you mentioned. They run $49 for the panel, $9 for each switch and then if you want the full harness kit, another $38 and that gives you everything you need. It also has a clean oem look. I’ll post a link to them on our site, and a video or two.

This video showcases the switch panel at the 2:38 mark in Carbon Fiber-


Also, we will be listing our full carbon fiber F-150 and Raptor interior upgrades in the next week or so.
So for those who didn’t get the carbon fiber package in their Raptors or those who want to add that same look to their 15+ F-150’s, you can now with our kit. This is real carbon fiber. Not stickers like those dash kits. It has the 4 door panels, dash and tray. We will also be offering a full carbon fiber center console panel.
