make sure you have it installed by someone who actually knows what is doing. Unless you are doing yourself.

Anyone installed this on their Stinger? Interested to know how complex it is as the instructions don't provide much details.
The instructions provide all the detail that you need. :D
So if you're not confident based on the diagrams they posted, then plan on having someone else do the install.

Received mine last week. Planning on doing the install myself using mostly positaps like on the JB4 fuel wires. However, after deciphering the wiring diagram, there will be 3 wires that will need to be cut where a relay or transistor gets placed inline. Most of the connections will be made in the passenger footwell area. There will be 2 wires that connect in the back fuse panel, one in the fuse panel at the driver's knees, one in the driver side footwell area, and 4 that run to the sunroof controls if you want to use that option. Needless to say the install will take some time.

My plan is to run all the wires outside of the passenger footwell area first and have them ready when I go to install the unit. We will see how it goes.

Thanks for the update @THCHAD

If possible takes some photos and try to put together a DIY.

Looking forward to the install comments.

I looked at the instructions and this is one I'm pretty nervous doing myself. I may take it to an installation shop to do if I get one.

The install is complete and fully tested without any issues. I've created a comprehensive DIY (took over 20hrs to put together) and provided to K8SS to post on their site.

@PatriotOne would you be willing to be contact be an installer if they had questions? I'm dealing with a botched installation attempt by one company, and have had to seek out a a hi-end company that is willing to troubleshoot and reinstall. The new company asked if I could get contacts for companies or people that have done the installation successfully JIC they had unique questions that weren't in the Knowledge Base or your walkthrough.
