Installing Mopar aux switches -- how much did it cost?

[maddscot]

Can you give me a part number. I’ll try and look other places. Does it come with the tray mount?

Here is the sku photo. It comes with the tray mount as well as a Ram Phone mount (grabber).

What did you pay?

For those of you have who have installed the Mopar switches and relays (82215798AD) auxiliary switch bank by the dealer, how much did the dealer charge you? I'm not sure what to expect, it doesn't seem like *that* much effort to me but maybe I'm mistaken?

I have a quote from 3 dealers:

Dealer A: $375 installed and flashed, said it would be 3-4 hours labor. This seems very low.

Dealer B (where I got it from and have had them do work in the past): $799 installed and flashed, said it would be 7 hours labor.

Dealer C: $1199 installed and flashed, said it would be 10 hours labor.

hi there, I have no idea how to create a post so I have to sneak my question into this thread.

once you do have them installed, they come with 2x 15A and 2x 40A fuses. My question is, if I already used up my 15A switches, can I install lights on the 40A as well? What would my downsides be?

Thanks already!

Thank You. I wish I could find one. I’m looking for the Jl200

Can a third party do the flash or does it have to be a dealership? I just bought the mopar switch bank to install for some lights and a winch. I am wondering if I should go directly to the dealership to have it installed or see if my local Offroad shop can do it.

Use this link to do it yourself. Don't spend another 400 for them to put that in.



Makes it very easy.

Holy cow, that video is pretty informative on the installation steps but your definition of easy and mine are pretty different! At the end of the video it does mention that the dealership will have to do the flash. I wonder if they charge for this(sure they do).

yea the dude did a great job on the video.
I cant imagine its too expensive but they will probably say something like „we will have to plug it in and thats always $85“ i can imagine... its a dealership :/

Ouch! Approximately how long did it take you to do the install?

Ended up picking up my JLUR this morning. I went with dealer A, they ended up wiring up some aux lights to it for a total quote of $550. They had estimated 4-5 hours, ended up taking nearly 7. It apparently is a major pain in the butt, and the biggest issue was getting the computer to recognize that the switches were installed properly. They ended up spending 2 hours troubleshooting only to discover they were missing a fuse.

The tl;dr is they did a good job and it works great, would not have wanted to do it myself, took 7 hours, get it from the factory with the aux package if you can, and check for fuses.

I am planning on doing the install myself soon. Which dealer did you end up going with?

Did this install myself last weekend, it took me two hours but probably would have taken an hour and a half if I didn't keep revisiting the video. After reading comments here and on the YouTube video I connected the orange wires directly together and used electrical tape around them instead of using the quick disconnect plug that came with the kit. Glad I did it myself, the local off road shop estimated it at 4 hours.

Awesome! Glad I could help!
Do you love them?

I would still like to know what would happen if I connected regular LED lights to the 40A cables... anybody know?
