What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[TTEChris]

Where did you mount the switches? Pic?

The trigger system has an optional mount for the JL. Honestly I'm not to impressed with the mount, switches, or back lighting.

They responded to an email I sent and said because of the design and ability to run wireless on two watch style batteries the LED's have to be made to draw as little power as possible. I chose to hard wire it into my mirror so that I could have the always on Rocker back lights, but I almost wish I didn't as from the angle you sit it makes it difficult to see if an accessory is on/off on certain switches.

The mount separated on me when installing it because it is held together by two tiny screws. Fortunately I was able to tighten them up, but still have a minor gap that I don't like. In all the pictures I've seen online that switch mount is a 1 piece design which would have eliminated that issue.

The rockers themselves require a good bit of force to depress. In any normal bolt on installation this would be fine, but because the factory plastic header is only held on by clips rather than any bolts it moves a good bit when toggling those switches.

Here is a crappy picture I just took. I will do a full review on it when I've spent more time with it.

I've been meaning to do the 3rd break light mod and get rid of the light above the tire to give some extra visibility. Also any tips on flipping the mirror? I tried to do mine but it didn't seem to come off.

I didn’t take the mirror off...I just spun it with a bit of persuasion.

WTH!! I ordered that mounting bracket for the Trigger 4+ from 4WP back in November (Black Friday week) and it was showing as shipping in December.. Then it didn't ship and they told me end of Jan. It never showed. I was just about to check in again.. How/where did you get yours? I wonder if only the 6-shooter bracket is available??

For now I am just using my iPhone app to control my Trigger.

So you're not liking it huh? Hopefully you can get it sorted out and are happy. I'm surprised it fits up there, I keep holding mine up there and it feels like the hood latches (hard top) are going to interfere. You have a soft top, so maybe it fits better...

Looks awesome! Just curious - does it "feel" smaller / more confining with the darkness. I've thought about doing this, just wondering if it feels like you're in a cave.

More decals at lunch. Jeep logo needs to get painted (hopefully tonight)

Love the orange and gray!

I know what you mean! To be honest, the feeling (for me) is more subtle/relaxing vs smaller/confined. It’s not as bright w the white which I like.

I got mine from 4WP, but I didn't see an option for the 4 switch setup. I had it in hand the day after I ordered
I'm sure the rockers will get smoother/easier to push with time, but I can't see myself getting used to those dim LED's. It's not just that they are dim, but because of the angle some look bright/on while others look dim/off. I confirmed this by sitting in the passenger seat and the opposite set of switches were dim.
Trigger told me to disconnect the ignition illumination wire to make it easier to see when they are on... I currently have them set to green just because it is the brightest color and easiest to see. I accidentally drove home with my Red accent lights on last night because I was showing someone at the shop before I left and forgot to turn them off. If the switch light was bright enough, I would have easily seen that they were on. Luckily I didn't get pulled over.
I like the system itself controlling it with my phone, but with Android auto always on when my phone is plugged in it makes getting to the menus a pain. With that said, it would be cool if their app worked through the Android auto interface on the dash.

I was so excited for this product! Now I'll be sure to wait and read your review. This is very disappointing
