Auxbeam 8 switch install anyone?

[Lexo52]

Here are some pictures of the install I did last weekend on mine. On the bracket that holds the electronics box I needed to cut off the tabs I marked in one of the photos and drill a hole a little closer to the bracket to attach it to the battery hold down bolt. The circuit breaker is bolted to the battery tray below the Electrical box bracket on one of the square holes. The wiring was ran into the cabin through where the clutch would pass through the firewall and ran the cable up through the A pillar. The switch panel was held in place with 3m tape so no holes had to be drilled. The fuse tap provided is the wrong size so just go to auto zone and pick up the correct one.

Really like where you placed it. Just received my switches and plan to install soon never done anything like it before! So kinda nervous lol

I like that but couldn’t part ways with the awesome ford badge

It's definitely still around, I put it safely in the zipper pocket of the tool pouch. All the mods on our bronco were done in a way so it can quickly be put back to stock and there would be no signs we changed anything.

Can I ask what fuse you hooked it up to? Would a 10 Amp work?

When I was Installing it I spoke with iag customer support and you can really hook it up to any, just as long as it goes off when you turn the ignition off. I installed it in one of the 10 Amp ones. It is the same fuse that oracle tells you to hook up the grille letter too.

Not the best pic because it was still a little dark out, here is where I put the mount. The factory bracket needed just very minor modification. I also put a thin washer under the bracket at the bolt holes to spackle it off the plastic slightly. This way I can go back to stock and out the Ford badge back on with no issues.

Great location - could you describe how you routed this / what firewall pass through you used? I am aware of the dashboard pass through grommet but is there another that is closer to the center console?

I am also curious about where you routed it. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the detailed pics

I have the 6 gang in mine. I removed the Ford badge in front of the cup holder and installed it in that space.

No install video, however, it's a very straightforward process. The only issue is deciding where/ how to mount the box.

What bracket did you used>?
My Auxbean 6 gang came with bracket they wont fit there...

I've got a shorter arm coming today and a metal ball to replace the cheap plastic one that came with the mount.

Yes I know I need to straighten my button stickers. It's was dark in the garage when I put them on.
