    Do you have a pic of the switch and installation? I didn't see it on the website.
    Also. The sale link didn't work.

    Link in sig has been fixed, thanks for pointing that out.

    The switch is a long neck toggle with the rubber waterproof cover.

    No problem. Your light kit is a must have for the tonneau covered beds. :thumbsup:
    In case anyone is wondering, mine is the warm white.

    I did something very similar. I ended up putting a door switch where one of the grommets go. I had to enlarge the hole but a hair, and drill a hole to hold the switch in place. Other than that, I didn't have to drill any other holes. Works like a charm
