Didn't you buy a fabtech 7.5 a little while ago? Could that be what you're installing?

yes i got the factory switches switch plates and door panels from a guy on here in austin. i like the 98 power door panels alot better also got the switches and door panels and mirrors for 150 then 10 bucks for the factory connectors from a local yard 70 for the window kit and then alot of wires. i also installed a fuzeblock fz1 to help out with getting power for that and other stuff in the truck
