Low Light Mode Switch

January 24/2018

Shortly after removing the yellow wire noted above, my "auto-on" feature started turning on all the time (light or dark). I'm not sure why it does this, but I've come used to it, and use it as DRL's; I usually
have the fog lights on too. Recently I've had the desire for some control over this feature, so decided to put a switch in place. A fellow GP owner recently did the same, but used a factory fog light switch,
giving a more stock look. I liked this idea, so plan on doing mine the same way, but will add a second switch (control the "auto-on" headlights and park lights) and mount them horizontaly.

For clarification, the proper name for the "auto-on" (also referred to as "sentinel" or "twilight") system is "low light mode".

HUD switch; remove the switch assembly and overlay.

Note how the overlay let the dash lights through the letters.

Cut off the two tabs that hold the switch in place.

Foglight switches with mounting bezels; remove the switches.

You want to keep the part that holds the switch.

First cut. The long sides got trimmed flush, and the short ends I left about 1/8" lip left.

Test fit.

Remove the original holes.

Another test fit.

Another test fit with the switches; everything lines up nicely.

JB Weld plastic bonder to keep everything together.

After the 30 minute cure time, everytging is nice and solid.

Another test with the switches.

Order arrived from Reflective Concepts.

This colour is their "battleship grey". They sent me 3 pieces cut to fit, 2 oversized
