when you look behind & above the glove box on the passenger side there should be an auxiliary fuse/breaker box up there .if it is not there then you don't have the wiring harness for upfitter swithes,goodluck, Gigger

I had mine done before I took delivery at the dealer....i was going to do it myself however they said I needed a complete wire harness that came in a seperate box and it was a 1 1/2 hr job. Not sure if you have the complete harness or not. Hope that helps somewhat.

I found the plug it was buried! factory fogs all hooked up and working!!! the upfitter switches are the *****!! I zip tied the relay box to the opening of the panel below the steering wheel for easy acces to the thee other wires that I now have to buy some thing to hook up to them.

I even used a 6"X8" mirror and lots of light - still NO GO! Any better description would be a great help!!! Thanks in advance...

its a bitch to get to but if you stick your head up against the gas pedal and look straight up you can just see a grey plug it has a dust cap in it but it is almost over the radio in that area its there on all sd trucks you are going to sratch hech out of your hand beacause you can only get one hand to it, I would give you a hand with it if you lived close to maine.

On my '08 it was strait up from the steering column, just shine a flashlight up there it is close to the top. I tried to put the relays where they said but it was impossible to get the screws to line up so I just zip tied it up there.
