I zip tied my switch to a little piece under the dash under the steering wheel. It is suprisingly very secure the way I did it and does not wiggle. Not the easiest location to easily find the switch without feeling around a little under the dash when I want to switch it. But it works and I didnt need to put a hole in my dash.
I used the following wireless switch. Just used Velcro to attach the switch on a lower portion of the dash.

Seems the other guy is a little more worked up over it, so I hope that wasn't directed towards my initial comment. I reached out to the seller to see if he would be willing to make some with the "correct" orientation for display on passenger side a d he said it would be too difficult for him. So I left it at that. It looks good and as long as you are okay with it, then don't worry about me or others. As I said, it will keep me from buying them. I have a local friend that does vinyl that I may reach out to and see if he would be able to make some.
Below is the last (???) of my USA graphics on my Patriotic Blue Limited ... Aluminum USA Flags:

GREAT idea! I have the Stars-n-Stripes on my (4) doors, but never thought about adding them to the MFT. Back to order another set! https://www.jamhandle.com/

Very nice.

What LED strip is that (OPT7)? Did you wire it directly to the trailer connectors or somewhere else?


It was Easy and cheap. I first attached a 3/4” x 1/8”aluminum flat bar under tailgate using self tapping screws 1” long in to plastic areas only. I used 1/4” spacers to allow a gap for tailgate wire.

Then used this Curtis adapture for 5 wire connection

I purchased cheap light from Amazon

You do need to use one wire tie in to harness for reverse light

I like that a lot, any link for parts or process for install?

Installed the WirelessONE compressor for the airbags I installed last week. Works with the phone app and remote...

This will be handy since I pull a trailer several times per week!

Are those the 5" or 6" boards? I'm looking at these as well. Looks good on your truck.

6" wide and fully covered in anti-slip tread. Quite a bit of adjustability inwards/outwards. I have mine tucked all the way in to the truck, and there is just the right amount of space to step on the board with my size 11 foot. My wife's size 6 liked the setting too. If you are often in work boots, you will probably want to adjust it outwards a bit.

Let me know if you need more pics or have any questions.

Thanks for the reply. Did you get them from Amazon or somewhere else? I've got them in my shopping list on Amazon. They're about $220 there. Wondering if you found a better deal somewhere else.
