Show me your air locker switch locations

[CharlieS]

Looking at bjowett's picture gave me an idea.

If you have a 16+ LC, the 4hi/low switch is on the center console... So, I wonder if you grabbed a prior generation 200 knee kick panel that has the 4hi/lo and start in that panel, could we put the 80 series diff locker switch where the hi/lo used to be, below the start button? That would put it in a perfectly accessible location.

@ltsr got it.

thanks guys! There is so many options. I filled up my 8 spot switch controller with all lights, so I think I am going to dedicate these 4 spots to compressor and lockers. Switches first, then hopefully compressor soon, and eventually gears and lockers. Although I don't currently feel the need for gears, but that's a debate for another thread lol

I use the ARB Linx mounted in the sunglasses holder. It also runs all my other accessories, a bonus is I run a Switch-Pros as a 3 way in the back that does just my lights and a water pump.

Ooooooooo, details on the REDARC dual voltage gauge?

Good eye! We wanted an easy, quick referencing gauge since we have a dual battery and a bunch of accessories along with an anderson plug that charges our Conqueror while in tow. It actually makes the dash symmetrical since it’s in the same spot as the ignition button but on the passenger side. It’s handy but polarized sunglasses can make it hard to read from the drivers side from time to time… that’s the only draw back.

Did you have to buy the RHD knee panel and modify the ignition cut out to fit the gauge or did you simply modify the knee panel already in there?

I didn’t do the installation but it’s the stock panel with some modifications.

These have a better match on the colour of light in the switch.

If the curve of the panel is the same, then I’d think yes you can. There’s a decent amount of space behind the panel and I’d expect the 2016+ is similar. I’d give it a shot but I only have a 2013…

Is your air compressor switch backlit? If so got a pic of it on? The CH4x4 switched have two LED (top and bottom) and you can wire the bottom to the dash lights and the top comes on when on. I'd like two different colors (white for the text and red for the icon when on) but they don't appear to have a two color option.

It is backlit, I can snap a pic for you this weekend.

I don’t see any dimensions or reference says they fit a 200. have you used these? I think it’s the “small” CH4x4 switches that fit the OEM panels.

AOB has different sizes for different vehicles. I have several I bought for my 200, you just need to confirm the dimensions, not all switches will fit the factory panel blanks

I found the ‘small’ dual switches really useful. Even more switches in the limited blanks available. I put in one single and wish now I had it as a double.

Got my OEM rotary switch today. I thought it would come with a wire harness connector but I only got the switch. Where can I get the matching connector/plug so I can make a harness?
