What wire did you connect to for the switch background light and did you simply unplug the PowerPoint and plug in the volt meter/USB charger?

Add a fuse tap on one of the spares. Yes.. I added a tab insert to the wire lead ends of the USB/voltmeter and inserted it to the existing plug and electrical taped it off.

Love it. Wish there was a video on how to do this. Not electrically savy when it comes to cars.

Loving this. Seems like it would be a great solution for exterior off road lights without having to drill out a whole in the dash for the switch. Will also work great for my interior emergency lights. Questions I have is how would you connect a garage door opener to this? Is there a prebuilt switch or do I need to take apart an existing remote and do a bunch of custom wiring?

All I did was open up my existing door remote and soldered 2 wires across the micro switch then connected to a momentary switch

Just make the cable reasonably long so the remote can be pushed up high within the dash

I ordered the Lightforce switch fascia on May 19th, heard nothing from them about shipping, then it randomly showed up today. I was surprised and pleased all at the same time. Just wish I had a Ranger to put it in.

For custom switches, you can order from https://www.ch4x4.com. That's where I got the switches that are in my Tacoma. I believe the Lightforce fascia uses the "Toyota small push switches" but I can measure tomorrow and verify that.
Did you ever figure out if these were the right size? Also, any suggestions for dual switches that will fit?

I'm currently looking at this myself. I've got some lighting upgrades coming that require some switches and this is the solution to housing them, I just need to figure out what will work.

Sorry I don't know. Haven't had the need to add any switches yet.

Thanks! I was hoping to find someone who was in the US as well. This one has come up a few times in my searches.
Can the fascia itself be ordered from a dealer in the US? I don't mind ordering it from AUS, but it shows out of stock there.
