Just finished the install, took about 9 hours going slow and figuring how it all comes apart. Mine was missing the red hardware bag and the battery stud kit  (bulletin#147) https://www.gmupfitter.com/files/media/photo/1143/UI Bulletin_147 Snow Plow power provisions_V2b.pdf  Probably when the dealer took it out of the back seat pre- delivery thinking it was left in there by mistake during assembly.

Kevin, did you order the truck with the switches from the factory  or did you buy the kit? From the bulletin it sound much easier if ordered from the factory with some components installed at the factory. Can an average person with some mechanical ability do it or should I pay the dealer?

Any pictures? Thanks!

I found the truck out of town and dealer traded it in. It was a factory option and was on the widow sticker as built. Nothing was installed, maybe they will install more as parts are more available. It is tricky but overall can be done if you take your time with moderate mechanical ability.

That would be great! Just curious to see how they look.  Thx! 

They do light up too, the 4 blunt cuts out the bottom are for your connection. #5 is the roof beacon wire that is coiled near the 3rd brake light. (snowplow prep pkg)

Looks like it is nice and straight, factory install I would guess if I did not know you installed it.   Great work !!??
 

Why are there blue and white wires hanging loose under the panel?

Those are for your connection to the 4 accessories you choose.

I did not connect anything up yet. The #5 is roof beacon pre-wired to the  3rd brake light area.
