Auxiliary Switches in Overhead Console- Not factory installed

Tinytom6874

My 1st post. I bought my daughter a Base Model Bronco. after doing my homework I realized it does not have Auxiliary Switches in Overhead Console with Front Map Lights. My dealership seems clueless. Does anyone know if these can be ordered and retrofitted. They are not available online that I can see. I thoughts would be helpful

When you say you Bought, does that mean you have it?
or are you saying you haven't received your Bronco yet?
which means that you have an order for one through your Dealership. You can order the Auxiliary Switches all the way up until you receive a Vin. I just went on the price and build and there should be no reason why you can't add it to your Order.

Welcome, and I would agree what @BroncOitis do you have it or already received your Build date ? VIN?
If not I'd get with the dealership and add it, problem solved. @1Five1 Garage I believe has looked into this?

I have pulled the panel down a little bit and didn't see a plug for it under there. Next weekend I will be pulling down the whole inner front window plastics and take some video and pictures of it. Maybe it is hidden down in there deeper. I do have a solution but looking for the stock switches for sure if I can. Once i get the badlands i will be able to see the difference in them.

I have a no optioned Big Bend with no option (including the aux switches) I will be installing and wiring in some lights as well. We have modified it quite a bit and all is on video. insert shameless plug here.

Feel free to ask any questions, Jill and I have done all the modifications ourselves and still have all fingers and toes. So we are doing something right. If we don't know we will try to find out for you.

All, thank you for the info. My apologies for the delayed response. I needed to update BN dashboard it was showing zero responses. I have the Bronco in my possession. My local dealership had someone order this base model with zero options including aux switches. The customer decided they did not want it so my sales rep reached out to me. I knew they were hard to get so I grabbed it sight unseen. Unfortunately, the aux switch situation seems to be painful. I just received everything I needed for a 2" lift from 4WP and I found a set of Sasquach Tires on E-bay. Should be a fun project (except the wiring :( )

we put a 2” rough country lift on. It’s a lot of work but worth it.We got our Big Bend the same way. It was declined by the customer and we picked it up.

You are correct. Switches are optional. I ordered mine with the switches, and not sure, but it looks like Ford pre wires them, so it may be more work than usual if there are no wires.
Wires dead end under driver side cowl.

If you don’t have a Vin assigned you can add it to your order :)

We found the answer...

ARB Linx sounds like a perfect fit after, especially with the compressor

Great vid guys! That was a lot of tricky work. The sad thing is it was 185 bucks as an option. I figured when ordering for what I am spending what the heck is another 200. The two things I didn't get which I really regret now are the modular bumper and the factory roof rack (try and find stock options now)!

I intentionally didn't order them as I thought they were def cool mod products I would pick up. Thing is, I didn't realize just how expensive and few the options would be.

I am hoping which crossed fingers, 2022 will all change all this and after the 2nd quarter, parts will flood the market!

Again! Great Vid! Keep rocking guys!
