Here is my Switch Pro install. I bought a Daystar console switch plate and modified it to fit the Switch Pro switches. Only had to drill 3 holes in it. One for the connector to pass through and 2 for the bolts. With the green lights on the switch and the daystar panel, it really looks factory. Using black bolts would help and I will swap those out eventually. I can't say enough how much I like this system.

Not sure why the pic rotated but I can't seem to get it to upload correctly. Sorry about that.

Thumbs up

We really like what you did with your install. Perfect location for ease of use, and it looks really clean, too!

Thank You! I am really happy with the install and the product itself. The bluetooth is a nice feature as well. Keep up the great work.

But what I was trying to get at, is the compressors main positive/negative cables are still hooked to the battery, while the switch harness allows you to hook up too a switch system such as a switch-pros or SPOD setup. You can not run the compressors power and negative cables directly to your system, which was a question asked a few post up.

Did that clarify my original reply a little better?

In theory one doesn't need to mount the switches somewhere accessible " although its awesome so why wouldn't you". Can you just run the system solely off Bluetooth as lond as the switch unit is plugged in or is the Bluetooth broadcast from the power unit itself?

I like what you did with the panel, did you have any issues mounting it or running the cables?

Thank you.

It was a very easy install. The instructions show how to come through the firewall behind glove box and from there it was very simple to run the wires and zip tie them up out of the way.

The only part that was difficult was removing the shifter knob so I could remove the center console to get the daystar panel out and back in.

Can anybody confirm if this will work with the Genesis dual battery system? Looks like it mounts in the same area as the battery sits along the passenger side firewall. Thanks!

Is there enough wire to run the control panel to the box if you mount the control panel up by the header like to S-pod mount ????
