I finally got the time to install my rear locker. I was like like soo jazzed. First thing I did was go out and get myself into a bigtime stuck. As for the first best use.... We'll just leave that one up to imagination.

Sorry, I don't know what the part numbers are. The front and rear switches came with the lockers. Since I have a bigger aftermarket compressor I just called ARB and ordered the compressor switch by phone. Fortunately the switches fit nicely in the rodeo bezel.

Looks very nice! What is that on your steering wheel, a remote for your stereo? Can you show a better picture of it, please?

Those look freakin awsome! Good job Andy! Now if I could only afford a couple of lockers! Maybe later... as for the remote, it looks to me like the Pioneer "Thumber" remote that comes with some of their radios... comes with a little holder that straps to the steering wheel... pretty handy doo-dad...

Coach... I mean Randy (I often forget who I really am) ;)

Yeah Todd I guess I should give credit where credit is due,, but it was a good Idea and I had to have one too. However,, if I remember right, there may still be one small difference. hehehe



As for that silly pioneer remote, how redundant is it to have a remote for something within arms reach?? It might be worth something in the back seat, but I spend very little time there

The Blaupunkt systems nearly all have had 'Thummer' remotes for a number of years now. There is indeed one which came with my system, but I never installed it as I was afraid of leaving permanent marks on the leather of the steering wheel.

They are pretty cool though.

I haven't put my pioneer in my VX yet, but in the trooper, I put it on the parking brake handle instead of the steering wheel. I eventually moved it to the steering wheel.

Functionally inept I know, but it was different.
