LightForce Switch Fascia for REDARC/Auxiliary Switches

[ulev1st]

They are on the website and available for order. I was the first to order off the website and it has a glitch as far as adding email and shipping address. It's best to call directly and speak to Brian in sales.. he will get you set up. $95 + $5 shipping.

Dang. I was hoping they’d drop the kangaroo logo for the US market.

They are still coming directly from Australia

You should be able to order custom/blank switches from the US website.

The switches used are the aftermarket generic type used on the Toyota Hilux, Prado, Landcruiser etc.. they are available all over the internet. Pay attention to the dimensions shown in the photo below as there are 2 different sizes of toyota style switches out there. Can even be customized. Here are a few links. Does appear lightforce USA does not have them on their site yet- their link kicks you over to the AU site.

I was told by Brian to order the extra switches from the Aussie site. They add them to his US shipment and he will distribute in US.
I did order the facia from him, he had it in stock. It comes with one switch and two blanks.

Garage door remote (as I don't like it stick to the visor)
LED Bar for the front (yet to install)
LED lights in the front grill (yet to install)
Reversing light
Front locker
One extra for just in case (probably compressor)

So, for the garage opener, is it an actual remote or does it need to be modified or connected to something else? I need 4 so the stock visor with 3 isn't enough for me.

It's just a momentary switch that is connected to the actual garage opener
Open up your remote solder two wires one on each side of the micro switch job done!

I guess I'll look into that. Thanks.

Are there any US Ranger-spec installation instructions? I was trying to see how to remove the trim pieces but I can’t seem to find if it’s fasteners or bolted. I’d love to be able to integrate the Redarc and garage openers into this solution. Thanks!

Video in post 3 of this thread. Watch it... the two side trim pieces pop off, they are initially tight. Then 7mm driver will work on the two facia screws, then pop it off too toward the shifter. two top clips, one bottom center and two glide pins. https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/thre...or-redarc-auxiliary-switches.1467/#post-13518

I’ll check it out. I saw it was mainly for the non-US Ranger and tuned out. Thanks!

It'd be nice if Lightforce would return phone calls. I tried ordering the switch fascia and some custom switches, but it kept sending me to the AU website without keeping the fascia in the cart.

Left a couple of messages to the US group and no return calls.

Kind of pissing me off.
