Yea they are really nice. Tied my interior footwell lights into one of them, have some strobe lights tied into another and working on a front light bar for aux 3. Nice to have lots of switches for future equipment! Here’s One of the threads where they are discussed. Let me know if you need any other info. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/228976-anyone-get-the-9l7-upfitter-aux-switches/page/4/?tab=comments#comment-2393894

in the legacy body style, it's been a mixed bag, some people had a wiring harness that already pinned out all the switches, but didn't have any relays or battery/switched leads. some people had nothin

Looking for an auxiliary switch that'll mount directly in the factory locations and haven't been able to locate any GM part options.  I'm trying to maintain that factory look.   Is anyone aw

I wanted to do something a bit different. 
 

installed one of these Switchpods. Still waiting on 6 AWG ring terminals to arrive in the mail to finish wiring up the relay pod itself

Really digging this set up rather than cutting into the dash panel.

Needed to drill 4 small holes as well as remove the cap off the USB and the 110v plug. Same with removed the 2 12v plugs as well 

 

but the panel only costs $30 Canadian if I want to return to stock

I found a great reference for possibly adding switch functions where you'd like to (under the radio in the center stack). Let me know if this helps:

I want to add the RC 10" mini LED's in my grille, and possibly a dual mode exhaust (more on that if it progresses) and I too want a factory look (no weird/non OE looking hardware) so I think this may be where I start to look.

I installed rocker switches. I prefer bigger ones with labels that are easily identifiable vs numbers, since the location is partially obstructed by the steering wheel.

Did those come with any kind of wiring harness or did you have to make something up yourself?

Currently I only have a light bar hooked up. It came with the wiring harness and a switch, but I didn't like the switch. These are on Amazon, They were around $8-$9 apiece. The two switches on the right aren't snapped in completely, so they'll be easy to pull out to wire up when I get the other lights (rear and A-pillar or fog..not sure yet).

Jesus. You could’ve gone for a feniex mini 4200 for a whole lot less but go ahead and get your flex on!

Haha the feniex mini is cool but I liked the design of the bantam with the under hood connection box

The gm aux switches are on the left side of the steering wheel now. Couple threads on here about them! They work great!

Two options I wanted in my truck but did not because of limited availability was upfitter switches, and trailer TPS.   Does anyone know if the harness and/or relays for this is already in the trucks?  Could the switches be purchased and installed as a 'plug n play' solution?

      Thanks!  I figured as such; GM and other manufacturers have used standard parts and harnesses across trim levels and such for decades.  I pulled the blank accessory cover off of my commuter van (a 2016 or so Chevy 15-passenger) years ago and found the plug for a USB outlet.  It wasn't connected to anything, though (I tried swapping in an outlet from another van).  I was a GM Tech years ago (late-90s) and was pretty familiar with my 2006.  I might be wrong, but I view newer vehicles (pretty much anything made in the past 20 years) as being a lot more plug and play.  Meaning, more unused wires and plugs unless you have the Mack Daddy of vehicles.

      not all plugs will be used.  gm uses more generic harnesses that support most/all options, and if your truck doesn't have a specfiic option, the plug won't be used (commonly will have a dummy insert in the plug , or it'll be taped up, but some may just be left as is).  But it's sldo possible some p.o. has installed the wrong/cheaper parts that aren't correct for your vehicle...

      First off, I'm not trying to just get easy advice/fixes for the issues I've noticed so far.  I'll be combing through the site via searches and such, and if past experiences are any indication, should find what I need.  For the sake of conversation, though, I figured I'd post the handful of things I've noticed in the 12 hours since buying my 2010 SLE CCSB.     Indicator lights: Airbag and TPMS.  The tire pressures aren't reading for any of the wheels, so I'm pretty certain the sensors were either removed, are damaged, or are otherwise inoperable.  I used to mount and balance tires 25 years ago but am pretty much ignorant when it comes to TPMS.  My 2006 didn't have the sensors and this might be the fourth vehicle I've owned that does.     Radio: Rear speakers aren't working.  I removed the driver's side rear door panel and checked the speaker and wiring.  I also removed the sill and b-pillar covers to check the wiring.  A few minutes of Google Fu showed that this is potentially a head unit issue.    Switches: Power mirrors don't turn left/right.  I ordered replacement driver's door switches that should arrive tomorrow.  The windows and locks work but it was only about $20 for all of them.  The driver's side rear window switch lets the window down but won't put it back up.  I think the passenger rear doesn't work at all.  In the coming days/weeks, I'll break out my multimeter to check all of that.   Unknown wiring harness: There's a box attached to the front driver's side of the engine compartment, right where the second battery shelf is located.  There are three plugs, one of which looks like it fits a standard headlight-style bulb (9007 or similar).  It doesn't look like it's plugged into anything.  I'll do some digging and if I don't see anything elsewhere on the site, post some pictures here.   Unknown plugs on brake booster: There are at least two female plugs on the brake booster that aren't being used.  I think it might be a replacement/aftermarket, so maybe those are used for a different application, as there don't seem to be any unplugged harnesses and no indicator lights are on.   Little squeaks when turning: Sounds almost like a bushing around the bed of the truck.  I'll have to pay close attention as I get more familiar with the truck.   Clunk on acceleration: possibly the infamous drivetrain clunk.  My 2006 had it and I'm just not familiar enough with this truck yet to fully grasp what it is.   Anyway, my apologies for the vague and all over the place post.  This truck is new to me, and it's been four years since I drove my 2006.  With 200k miles, I know I'll need to learn this truck quickly to avoid having any major issues, despite being confident it's got much more life to it.  My 2006 had nearly 320k on it when I parked it (nearly 300k of which I put on the truck), and it was still drivable then, though I suspected the head gasket might have blown.  I'd hoped to have that truck back by now, but it's gone forever, as I detailed in my reintroduction thread.

      I always drive in Sport mode. With more driving, I am finding the initial response when accelerating is much quicker now🖕 Lou
