I just sold a F-250 XLT diesel for my '16 3.5 SCREW. On the diesel, I had the nice little row of switches that allowed me to operate some extra lights I had on the truck.
I'm wanting to add some LEDs under the rear bumper, and probably a LED bar to a bull bar up front, but I cannot think of any good place to install two switches or backlit buttons.
What have y'all done? Got any pics?
EDIT: I have a full moonroof, so overhead won't work.
Thank you!

The cleanest solutions are to either install a new overhead console with the upfitter switches (search, there's a huge thread on it) or installing the @KustomFX switch panel into your existing overhead console. I've done both:

Appreciate the ideas, but I have the dual moonroofs so I don't know if the updated overhead console would work, and...even if it did, I believe that cost would be kinda insane for 2 sets of LEDs. :-)
If you don't have the trailer brake controller, I've found my switches in that location to be pretty convenient while still being out of the way. My install is here: https://www.f150forum.com/f118/rigid...nstall-422350/

You can run the KustomFX panel on what you've got... you don't have to be nuts and do the dual switch thing like I did!
Do you have the factory brake controller installed or is that spot available for a few switches?
I have the towing package with trailer backing assist (which I am sure I will NEVER use).

Thanks, I'll look at that.

I went to his thread, and he states that his panel will not fit F-150s with the moonroofs.
And @motsco -- thanks for that idea, but that looks a tad outta place. Not bad for a switch location, though. Thanks for that idea.
