Bronco Sport Light Switch Panel Recommendations

[CharlieBroncoSport]

Hey all!

So I am installing two light bars (Rough Country) and I got a ditch light kit from Diode Dynamics. I'm going to need panel to take care of these switches rather than use the ones they come with which are ugly and require a lot of drilling.

Anyone have any builds or suggestions?

Auxbeam is what I used. It keeps things clean both under the hood and inside the cab. 8 switch went on sale or I would’ve just got 6.

@GulfCoastBronco how did you mount the control panel inside?

It is drilled on. You could possibly use some 3M adhesive. But I was fine drilling based on location. There is nothing behind that spot and it’s hollow so there was no chance of drilling into something.

That’s exactly where I’m going to mount mine this week too. The instructions say the panel is dimmable but not sure how to do that. Does yours dim?

Haven’t tried to dim it to be honest. The brightness doesn’t bother me. Kinda blends in with the ambient lightning

OK, thanks. Several of their advertising sites list that function, but it never says HOW to do it.

Also, with SO many buttons that I'll have blank, I'm not sure what my possibilities are with the Bronco. I will have S1 fogs replaced and was going to use one of the buttons for that, but the fog button is already directly above the switch controller. How many of those other button covers are true options for the Bronco?? Later I "might" have a second LED in front and maybe a top light bar, but that's still just 4 (out of 8). I wondering if I just have ONE button for my 4 round lights in the front.

Another question was weather to wire the controller hot all the time or only upon ignition.

Where did you get that mounting plate?

Everything came with the auxbeam

I got the Auxbeam AR-800 and mounted the controller using 3m tape just above the P-R-N-D dial. This way it doesn't interfere with the cubby area and the wiring goes right behind by the glove box so no drilling required. Installing my RC Roof bar light tomorrow
