You're thinking in terms of using them in the factory configuration. I'm thinking of bypassing all the computer foolishness and simply using a hidden in plain sight low cost solution.Fine, until you get this message -
aux switches temporarily unavailable
in your cluster.
Anything is doable - but those switches don't always work with certain battery charge conditions or other things going on.
So you get in, push the switch and find it won't work so you can't start your truck where otherwise you'd be able to.
You can use them for anything - but I'd not use them for something that might disable your ability to start the truck.
You are better off with a hidden switch that doesn't rely on the truck's systems being perfect.
Looking past that detail, however, these forums seem to be fairly replete with posts about Jeeps being unable to start or go anywhere because of one factory electronic brain fart or another. So I'm not sure that using an AUX switch tied to the same systems would necessarily increase risk any.
