upfitteres are just a plug and play. they go right beside the TBC. That little coin tray just pops off.

Here is the directions to assist.

There is a special plug on the back of the switch pack that requires the wiring/relay harness. Unless you want to rip the pack apart and hardwire it but after doing my own installation I would highly recommend the wiring/relay harness. I bought the pack under the plan like yours, to do my own wiring but didn't want to get into tearing the pack apart so I had to buy the harness.

you can order it along with the switches as a complete unit. I did and used those same directions.

your gonna find that the local dealers don't understand that there are other sources out there.

they tend to think they are the only game in town.
