I got 'em... & love 'em too... now if I can only find where to connect my accessories to I just might be able to use them.

The Ford dealer told me the wires are above the fuse box under the dash. So I dropped the fuse box and I found some wires there, but when I apply power to the switch (light on switch is on) none of those wires have power. So now I don't know what those wires go too....

I have 05 with upfitter switches. Have strobes connected to one. The wires are above fusebox. Ends of wires are marked "upfitter one'' and so on.

Tim,
When I clicked on the Fleet Ford link, I got dumped to a Paypal link. I worked around it and I finally got this link to work:
www.fleet.ford.com/truckbbas/non-html/Q117.pdf

Thanks for the info! I'm going to install my rear fog lights this weekend using the info from that link.

Gonna bet it is, not a whole lot of changes between them. The biggest was probably downgrading the alternator in '06 ...

Has anyone used them as a fuel-pump defeat (theft deterrent)?
Turning off the mirror heaters?
