yea thats it, but instead of leaving that plug out, i slit the side a little bit so you can get your cables to the middle, then when you push it back in the plug kinda squishes the two rubber sides together

any pics with a broader view? Hard to tell where that is on the truck in the first pic. I would like to plug the adapter in the center console, if not I can go out and buy a three plug adapter so I can use several other things at the same time on the main by the 4wd shifter.

Hey steve I forgot to tell you, and you prob realize this. But the wires unhook. I connected them to test it once I got it from Raceland. FYI. Hope you enjoy it!

i cant get the pic to load on a DoD computer but i'm guessing hes talking about not having a grommet or anything protecting the wires from bare steel. chafing will happen and then a short then a fire.
