I didn't order switches on my Rubicon and was ambivalent until a couple weeks ago when I was out of town and rented one which had them.

Not happy with the location. Very inconvenient to turn light bar on and off.

Just about all of them I have been looking at on auto trader doesnā€™t have the auxiliary switches and they donā€™t come with the headliners or the tie down bed rails or the engine cover Jeep figured out they could charge more money for you to add that stuff on
That's why they are called add ons, or packages. Search around and you'll find cheaper alternatives or people selling those items.

Or order from Gupton or one of the others and save $6000 and order exactly what you want.

Believe me the 2 month wait is worth it.

Iā€™m looking at a rubi thatā€™s getting delivered next week. Good options, but no aux switches on the sticker. Thatā€™s not standard on rubiā€™s is it? If not does anyone have a pic they can share of what it looks like without them?
You can add them later on if you want. It's kind of a pain just because it's time consuming but not horrible. In hid sight I probably would have just done Switch Pros or Spod.

Mine came without also. Bad thing is and I donā€™t know if itā€™s because I have a diesel, you canā€™t add itā€¦. ā€¦at least thatā€™s what Iā€™m told.


Itā€™s just a black pocket deep enough to fit 90% of a Copenhagen can. Itā€™s never bounced out.


it has the 26R packageā€¦what ever that is.
You can add them if you want. I have a diesel and was able to add them. The only problem is that the spot you're supposed to put the relays is taken up by a fuse box on the diesel, so you have to get creative on where you put the relays. It is nice having a stock look but I find that the switches are not in the most convenient spot. If I was to do it again, I would probably just go with something like Spods or Switch-Pros.

A few months back, the Aux switch option was on part constraints and many dealership orders left them off to get vehicles on the lot. Pretty common around me right now with many dealership Gladiators and Wranglers not having the aux switches when they use to be more common in the past.

Not exactly. $6000 u saved does not include the time, travel cost and trade in tax saving.

Jeep is throwing out rebates on gladiator for this month, pretty much make straight up purchase better deal

2 month wait? Better check with those who ordered in April and are still waiting........... some are at 3+ months. Just so folks know the reality, the wait could be as short as 2, could be as long as 4 or so.

It's still worth it to get exactly what you want - get the options you do want, skip those you don't want and don't pay for them.

The thing about the factory aux switch option is it gets you slightly larger battery.......... you don't get that with after-the-sale installs or non-MOPAR switches.

I had to order the switches in my JTR.
