Switch Pro 9100 Vertical Mounting Solution

[Toda R]

Hi, thanks for the feedback. I actually received the shipment yesterday, much to my surprise as I had not been told that they shipped.

So the status with it is that I need to look at the power cables part of it put the order in for those, but I wanted to have the MountTray in hand so I can be very specific on the cable lengths. I should hopefully be able to dial that in this week along with pricing information.

Great!!!

One thing as I kept looking over your demo one, do you have to remove the left side fender plastic cover to mount this? Also as someone else mentioned what about hood clearance?

Thanks. Can’t wait to get one of these kits to mounted in my rig.

Here is a photo where I took the rubber/plastic and just put the Mount Tray under it. You would want to either do this or cut out around the Mount Tray as you definitely would not want to install it on top of the rubber/plastic cover. I did reply to the inquiry about the hood shock, it is close, but room is tight under there. I'm trying to work out getting a picture from inside with the hood fully closed, but thats complicated, lol.....

Do you happen to have any more photos of this tray? Perhaps a shot further back showing more of the engine bay? Thanks in advance.

Does this photo cover what you were looking to see ?

Thanks for the questions, keep them coming !

Looks really good, any idea on what you'll be looking to get for one of these beauties? And have you decided on what you will offer with the trays? I.E. bus bars, terminal blocks, etc. I would prefer to source these items on my own, as I would like a ten terminal block. Can't wait to get my hands on one, keep us updated!

Count me in

Yes, seems like a great setup, can you let me know the details for one!

I'm waiting on the ground wire pricing to come in before I can put a dollar amount on the package deal. I want for you all to be able to have a product you can install out of the box if you know what I mean. The Blue Sea 2510 is the 10 circuit terminal Block. I can look into availability, but the holes will not line up for the 10 vs the 8 circuit on the current Mount Tray....

I'd be very interested in feedback from others on this - are there more people that would want the ability to use the 10 circuit even though you would not be able to able to connect it to the Switch Pro ? I could do a run of those if there's enough interest.

Thank you, I'll keep you in the loop, but perhaps subscribing to the thread would be good ! Any additional feedback on what you see or would like options-wise ?

So the status update is that I have the (20) Mount Trays in as well as the Blue Sea parts. Getting the ground wire in should hopefully be 1-2 weeks out !! I'm putting together the installation instructions in the meantime.

12 Circuit Fuse Block

I like this but would like space for a fuse block. Curious if this would fit an FJ as well? I have the SwitchPro in the FJ, not the 4R.

Here is an example of the possibility of installing a Blue Sea 5026 - ST Blade Fuse Block - 12 Circuits with Negative Bus and 1 or 2 circuit breakers on a different version of the Mount Tray. Of course, this eliminates the BusBar and Terminal Block. The slot in the Mount Tray would be between the fuse block and the circuit breaker. Any thoughts or input ? Is this something of interest ?

I am interested in purchase as well. 10 or 12 circuit blue sea. What will the pricing look like?

I like this! Staying under warranty is a huge benefit.

I think your best bet is to sell blank plates. Then have a discount for bundling with additional components. But there may not be much marginal profit, and Amazon is getting harder and harder to beat.

When I get my Switch Pro, I want my lights to trigger off the tail lights. In order to do this, I need relays that uses the same tail light input the Switch Pro uses to dim the backlight. I’ve figured it out on paper, but that is the easy half of it. Just another custom option to accommodate.

Love to know when “these hit the shelves”!

Sounds good, thanks ! Pricing should be out by Monday, but I have to wait for the ground cables to come in for the package to be 'complete'. The set up that will be available will be the one with the Blue Sea 10 circuit ground buss and the 8 circuit terminal block as this is what the Mount Tray is designed for in conjunction with the Switch Pro 9100 (8 circuits).

Great ! Thanks for the input. I can definitely offer blanks, again I just have to meet order minimums (in the beginning at least) to get this off the ground. The ground cable is holding up the 'package' and is looking like a couple weeks out.

Will keep you and the thread informed.

Final Install

I did the final install of the Mount Tray this weekend along with my assistant DJ Rouge, less the wiring of the SP9100 itself. I've been working on dialing in the MT itself that I've not spent any time on the main objective.

I did end up leaving the rubber fender lining behind the SP as it did not seem to need to be cut, in fact, I decided that I actually wanted it there.

Really solid, stable and sturdy install. I'm really excited to see people post up pictures of their setups.

Here are a couple more photos, although they do not look much different that what I've posted already. Thanks everyone for the positive feedback. As soon as I get the rest of the details set up (payment options), i'll post up a for sale in the classifieds as I think that's how I need to do it to comply with forum guidelines. I'm not expecting that to take long, but hoping to be able to ship by Monday next week at the very latest. I have 20 units ready to go.

I PM'd users that sounded interested from my SD Offroad user account. Its my account set up, as recommended, for that side of this endeavor.

Thanks again everyone for your input, suggestions and support !

 

[tomb_rnr]

Yes!! This is nice!

I like the idea of Power Trays, clean and neat! But as Switch Pro says, mounting it verticle is highly recommended.

Is this per order? How much for the tray?

Mount Tray Ready to Go !

Finalizing some backend administrative details, but thought I'd post a pic of the Mount Tray that's ready to ship ! Holes predrilled for the Blue Sea 2300 BusBar and Terminal Block 2508.

Forgot to mention that the other two holes above the MT logo are for a Blue Sea Circuit Breaker.

Switch-Pros SP9100 mounting holes on the side for the vertical mount of the Power Module.

Switch-Pros SP9100 Power Cable

I had an inquiry asking if the power supply cable that comes with the SP9100 kit reaches from the battery to the stud on the Power Module... By a longshot it does, here's a pic:

BTW, as you can see, its not installed. Its not time yet, but when I do, I plan to run it down the side of the fender, fuse box and battery, and there is still plenty of length.

Someone posted on another thread that you need to use the power supply that came with the SP9100 or it voids your warranty... Just like the horizontal mounting of the Power Module - Switch-Pros says that it can void your warranty which is why I came up with this vertical mount....

Questions are good, it educates everyone, please keep them coming...

SP Mount

Hi,
Interested in this. Can you mail to Canada? What would the charge be? Will the power cable fit under the tray and behind the fuse box down to the battery?
