Brookings Digital Switch Panel. Installed in a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. Ill be adding lights as i purchase them. This is a "new to me" truck. I all i have now is a R/R Slimlighter in the dash. Plans are:


FRONT:


4 HAW LEDS


Full Interior Lightbar


(4) 6 LED Pimp Pods


REAR:


2 Mini Phantoms in rear glass


SOS Taillight Flasher


Maybe more after i see how this set-up goes.


Heres a video of my GMC 2500HD before i sold it:

Looks good. One word of advise though; I would put rubber grommets on those holes, a.b.s. plastic can wear a hole through the coating after a while of vibration.
 
Nice and simple install... I like it... I would have suggested a different mounting location. Here's where I mounted mime in my '95 Tahoe before I got my console... It fits perfect in that upper cubby hole...


This is the only pic I could find of it installed...

Regardless, good job man... Can't wait to see the rest of the install progress...
 
Let me know what you think of the LED HAWs vs. strobes. I am curious to see if the extra $$$ is worth the warning power.
 
Good job ...


Another word of advice is .....One hole would have saved you alot of time , also one snap bushing would have taken care of the hole. Now you have your work cut out for yourself to protect those wires.

i have now installed some small rubber bushings i got from the hardware store. fit perfect in the holes and will protect from wear against the plastic.

Is it possible to control a siren with a Brookings Switch?


Pretty sure you can use it with a remote mount siren (like a FS undercover).

yes any of the switches can be programmed as a momentary switch for sirens. also depends on the siren if its - or + switched.

Where did you pick it up from? I'm thinking of grabbing one.

picked it up from a user on here who had one NIB. several vendors on here sell them. they retail for $200+ so i wouldnt have bought one had i not gotten a deal on one. lol
