Yes, it is. The truck ended up in a great home, I'm glad that I'll be able to follow it on the forum as it starts a new Cali life!

Honestly, I feel like I did! I added a LVJ relay panel, another factory switch panel in the passenger side cubby, then ran all of the 8 switches all the way up front to a new enclosure that I put distribution blocks in for all the switches and grounds. Then I installed a strobe controller and 4 small switches on the bezel around the gauges, 2 to control the 50% dim and strobe feature on my BD bars and 2 to control solid on and strobe pattern for the ambers. 2 M&R headrest bars and one all the way upfront in the grille. And yesterday I finished it up by hookingg up my relay for my air horns, I wore these into the factory horn so the steering wheel is the horn button when the six switch is on. And ran the wires all the way to the back for reverse lights and bed lights.

I am pretty good at doing this line of work, and it took me 3 days! It is a big project to do it clean and right. All connections are heat shrunk, there is not one wire to be seen. Every wire is in split loom and taped up. I am pretty **** about it being clean.

I'd really be interested and appreciative to see how you hooked up the 4 switches for the BD lights because I'm getting ready to install mine and was trying to decide if I wanted to run them with the dimmer and strobe option. I wasn't sure how much of a pain it would be.

It is a pain, and I'll probably never use it. I just thought if BD give the option to do it I'm going to hook them up. The 2 push button momentary switches left of the wheel are for the BD bars. It is a tight squeeze getting the switches on that panel, measure and check again, but they fit. Got the switches at O'riely. I just like putting them there because it looks clean and I don't have to drill any holes in the dash itself. BD actually makes it easier because the wire for the 3rd function actually has power running through it from the light, so when u run it to the switch all you have to do is ground the switch.
