I have a 2012 all the doors have the illuminated lock button. Maybe this was a '11 and up change?

So much for testing that wire going to the door. My multimeter is dead, I hate lending stuff out!

If anyone can test the orange w/gray trace wire that goes to the drivers door disconnect to see if it is a dash light positive that would be much appreciated.

Gentlemen: it is 12:12 am and I've been wiring since 2 pm (yes, seriously, 10 hours). My wife and kids are out of town. I'm going to do a full writeup tomorrow but the pod with these switches is sweet. Getting all 28 wires to the back of the switches took 2.5 hours; I have three way switches with 7 spades per switch. I made "harnesses" that allows for the entire pod to be unplugged without having to unplug everything at the switches. I've got like 20 pics and will do a full write up.

Can anyone tell me if these switches will interchange with Daystar? I have a Daystar lower dash panel in my 2012 and I'd like to use these switches.

If they're carling switch bodies, the rockers will fit.

They'll fit. You'll have to pop the switch over from the body sand the sides down. Use a sharpie to make the sides black again. Pop the cover back in the switch body. There a write up about It somewhere on here.

I just start a new thread with my complete wiring of my switches and pod, FYI. My iPad won't let me post it here. Thanks.

Has anyone change these out on an s-Pod unit. Would like to change switch covers and switches to dual lit switches. Any help would be appreciated.

Switches should drop in. Call sPOD though. The wiring is totally different for dual illuminated. The owner said he had some very limited dual switch models but that that wasn't the point of an sPOD. Btw, I love those things, but couldn't buy o e due to my desire for three way switches.
