Uses for Upfitter Switches

[RoadJunkie]

Other than increasing the idle speed and controlling after market lighting, what are some of the other uses you have found for the upfitter switches?

I attached mine to my rearview camera so I couild activate it while driving. There is no need for the truck to be in reverse.

Interesting, where did you find the connection point? You probably used a relay to interface with the reverse switch?

Electric shut off for auxiliary fuel tank in truck box, high idle, and a 'master' power to accessories like GPS, radar detector, and cell phone/BB charger. I hate all those cigarette lighter plugs hanging all over the place.
If I cant do the foglights w/high beam mod on my 08, I will use one to power my fogs so I can control when they are on. I cant seem fo find anyone who has made the mod work on the 6.4 trucks.

I want to use mine for my train horns and compressor but don't know where to start.

I put in a three outlet powerpoint in the back to power all my kid's electronic junk and ran it off switch four so it was fused. Switch one is for auxiliary lights.

Passenger ejector seat.

I do like the idea of Axle Lockers though.

Using mine for high idle, backup camera, and box lights under the cover, hoping to hook the last to a power inverter under the center seat. Our farm service pickup we have one hooked to toolbox lights, cb radio, service fuel tank(using a relay and main battery power), and a handwashing water tank.

I know that there are blunt connections for the upfitters under the dash on the drivers side. I noticed that by the master cylinder on the drivers side there is the same blunt connections. Are these the same? I can use these maybe instead of pulling wire through the firewall?

Thanks.
