As I ponder what upgrades to add, what do you folks use your auxiliary switches for? I read through some old threads, but maybe now is a good time to hear what everyone has added over time!

I mentioned elsewhere I want to re-wire the off-road only auxiliary light switch to a forward facing mounted spotlight, which folds flat. Here’s my concept of swapping the hood plate for an aluminum one which I can mount the remote spot onto:

Along with that I’d like to update the driving lamps with the Owl 7” Triple R kit and the hidden 21” light bar in the grill, each on their own switch, relays as necessary. And 4 side lights attached to the rails. No idea what to do with the internal ones yet, or the additional roof light, at least until I get a rack.

EXT 1 Bonnet (10A) Hidden Light Bar
INT 1 L Footwell (10A) ?
INT 2 R Footwell (10A) ?

EXT 2 RF Roof (25A) ?
EXT 3 Roof (25A) Side lights x 4
EXT 4 (500A) Factory Winch / Tow
EXT 5 Bonnet (25A) 7” Driving lamps

A template if you’d like to share your config:

EXT 1 Bonnet (10A)
INT 1 L Footwell (10A)
INT 2 R Footwell (10A)

EXT 2 RF Roof (25A)
EXT 3 Roof (25A)
EXT 4 (500A)
EXT 5 Bonnet (25A)

Anyway, curious to hear from everyone
 
Appears no one finds this interesting.

Amusingly I ordered the spotlight pictured above and it’s the size of a toaster, so back to the drawing board there. Amazon no name brand so not totally surprised. Now I’m looking at Whelen Arges units. Probably still too big.
 
Right footwel, radio transceiver. In Spain the driver sits in the left.

Left footwel, I am just know connecting a USB plug .

The fridge is connected to the cigarrette plug in the boot.

No externals being used right now.
 
INT 1 - UHF radio
EXT 2 - Starlink
EXT 3 - LED side roof light and 12v fuel transfer pump.

Cheers
Steve
