Needed Accessory

First, thanks to all of you who left a review. It helped when installing. Installed in 15 minutes, was real careful removing the trim. Used a 7/8 inch spade and worked perfectly. Also, did not change the fuse.

Price?

Wonder why Show Chrome shows the MRSP as $10.95 and Wingstuff shows it as $12.95 and then actually charge $10.99 and make you think it's a deal :)

The reason for the 4 stars is because the instructions tell you to put a 10 amp fuse in place of the 5 amp fuse. This is never a good idea as the wiring is often sized for the fuse. In addition, downstream fuses are always sized to blow before the upstream fuse. Increasing this to 10 amp could either cause the wiring to overheat(if you have a 10 amp load plugged in) or possibly cause the upstream fuse to blow first.
In the 2006-2010 model, the schematic shows that there are no other loads on the accessory outlet fuse. So, don't upsize it. (I don't know about the earlier model wings.)

Easy install

This was an easy install but the assembly didn't have anything that secured the power housing to the left glove box. I had to install a large o-ring to hold it in place when removing the plug from the assembly. It energizes once the ignition is turned on. Overall, well worth the money. I'll echo what others stated regarding using a 7/8 bit... not big enough.
