Does anyone know what part numbers I need to add the 5 aux switches into my truck? It looks like there is the actual aux switch panel and another part (I'm assuming a fuse box of some sort) that is mounted to the firewall on Trucks that came with this from the factory.

If anyone has done this upgrade and could pass along some knowledge on prices and what not it would be appreciated!

The auxiliary switch panel for 2013 & newer Rams is a regular Mopar part
I can be bought from several aftermarket places & places like eBay & Amazon

This switch panel came stock if the truck came with the Trailer Brake Control
Many owners Rams don't have the aux panel & install the unit themselves

Some of the panels have different buttons than others

Watch this video, it will give you the basics


you can buy the units with or without the brake controller

This is another video that goes into more detail

Do yourself a favor & buy a set of Plastic Trim Tools to pry with, you will use them in several places on your Ram
Jerking things like this guy does could easily break things


The outfit that supplies their own wiring harness & black box to connect it all, is 4th Gen Electronics, they may or may not have the parts in stock, You will have to check with them
