New Switch Location

[RavenRanger19]

I'm just curious to those that have installed auxiliary lights, where did you install the switches inside the cab?

Many are using the Lightforce bracket and I’ve seen some with switches in the overhead panel by the dome light and in the centre console near where the 4wd switch is or would be.

If you want it to look factory, get the Lightforce bar. A little pricey, but the integration is done so well, you'd think it came that way from the factory.

I installed a few in the overhead console.

This looks like the ticket: https://www.lightforce.com/en_us/lightforce-switch-fascia-to-suit-ford-ranger-everest

Going to verify with them that it fits out trucks, but it sure looks like it does.

For the DIY guys, I found the panel on Ford's site: https://parts.ford.com/shop/en/us/body/body-hardware/panel-instrument-9343251-1

It wasn't easy to find

Trigger 3001 six shooter with RF switch, no wiring needed...magnet mount to strip of metal double taped to ceiling...I can detach this and control lighting from 30 feet away outside of the truck...

I have a lightbar facing forward and two rear facing lights and here’s where I put my switches. Works great

Which panel is that?

That's the stock lower fascia where the two power ports are, the one that the Lightforce part replaces.

Okay thanks, now I understand the DIY part.

I’m looking at 3D printing a switch pod and incorporating a home link transmitter.

I look forward to seeing what you come up with!

I installed a few in the overhead console.

A bit off topic, but is that where the homelink buttons are installed factory, or is that an aftermarket garage door opener?
