I wanted to relocate the CDL from the center dash to the left side of the steering wheel. I'm going to be putting in ARB's and I wanted all my locker switches in one location. I bought the switch from Custom Switches - Lightforce Custom Switches shipping is a bit much but doing all my electrical in one shot so ordering 9 switches made it feasible to go this route.
So I tapped into the rheostat for +/- illumination because I wanted the dim function, unfortunately doing this there is no indication light on the switch unless the lights are on. But the lights on the dash do the trick for indication.
I used a two bypass plugs, one to get the pin out of for pin 8 and the other to use with the relay. I tapped switched power off of the lighter circuit to trigger the relay and grounded the relay behind the driver side kick panel.
So 7 pin goes to terminal 30 on the relay, 10 goes to 87a, and 8 goes to 87.
I have a front locker and rear locker switch that will go directly below this one. I'll search and see if any one has integrated the dash light with their aftermarket lockers, I plan to since the switch wont have lit indication without the lights being on.
