I will probably wire my garage door opener to one of them. Pretty simple if your willing to tear one of your openers apart.

Are the Aux switches required if I opt for the $650 Pod lights? I'd love to have the Pod lights with a single switch (and not have 5 blank switches).

Meaning - do I have to buy BOTH the $650 Pod Lights option PLUS the set of Aux switches?

You don't need both, although it might be easier with the switches already prewired.

For those wondering, there will be 6 color coded hot wires coming out of the firewall, each rated for a certain amount of amps, makes auxiliary lighting a snap since they are fused and relayed. They will not be rated at amp levels for direct power to winches, compressors, etc.
This is a 17 Raptor.

Another motorist asks, “hey is that a new Jeep?”

“Naw baby, this is a BRONCO.” (Hits horn button)

How do you NOT have a good day after that?
Sold me on it!

Remote start has be available for ages now, on a manual. Automakers won't add it from the factory, due to liability reasons.

How do we wire 'things' to the switches? Or do we need dealer to?
Search youtube for "upfitter switches" and you will see plenty of info about how the wire. Ford has done this so well that anyone can do it.

With 1. - I presume you are referring to the "piped in" exhaust noise.
With 2. - Are you thinking of starting with a Mod top with the removable rear windows? To take that a step further, a 2-dr has the gunner's hatch. I wonder what it would take to modify it to work like an old school sun roof (just pop up, not retract).
