Chassis ground under shifter bezel or close by?

The aux switches are toggle switches. I'm installing a push button.

A momentary push button, I should say.

Busa, are you saying that for me to get a wire from under the shifter/upfitters over to the glove box/fuse box area, I have to pull the whole center console?

no, you shouldnt have to if you are just fishing a wire through, but it isnt to hard to pull it if you want to.

 

[RaptorSteve]

Yeah, I got it, wasn't hard at all. Thanks.

Busa, Here's another question.

I got this stainless steel momentary push button switch. It came with a little rubber o-ring. Does the o-ring go between the underside of the button and the nut, or does it go between the top of the button and the finished surface?

here's a link to the switch

Silver Metal Stainless Steel Blue LED Illuminated Momentary Pushbutton Switch 22mm

i think it goes between the top of the button and the finished side of the panel. that way it protects the surface from scratches if it rotates while tightening. how thick is it?

 

[RaptorSteve]

Maybe a millimeter. I have it installed as you suggest, it makes sense.

I have those same switches and have yet to use them but the o-ring goes between the switch and the mating surface

 

[RaptorSteve]

Okay, we have a consensus. Thanks guys.

Here's the switch installed. (Sort of) The white ring will illuminate blue when the upfitter/LED bar is turned on. The stainless button matches nicely with the fake stainless around the shifter and cup holders.

nice, I wish the blue interior would have been an option in 2010.

You got a part # for that switch?
