Very useful for adding lights, rear camera, high idle mod. They are prewired and fused. Inside the cab the wires will be located around the brake pedal area on the fire wall. They might be taped up to a look or bundle of wires. Engine bay side they are around the brake fluid resivior.

So there are termination points on the inside AND the outside of the cab?

I apologize. I was putting two different things together. There are pass through wires on the fire wall for wiring up additional things. The upfitter switched are all fused independently and can be used for adding accessory items. I still am pretty sure they are around the brake pedal. You will have a wire loom with like 4 or 5 wires visible but taped to the loom. If you google it there are tons of pictures.

OK, so basically they are just pre-wired HOT switches so that Joe Handyman doesn't have to butcher his dash....
