Here is what I have got. I installed a Python 460HP in my 1990 Dodge truck. I added all the door lock stuff and after the help of this site the illuminated entry. I ran the blue wire from the python module to the hood pin I installed and now I need to add the rear slider and tool box doors. I am thinking a distribution block under the hood to connect everything on that zone, hood, toolbox and slider. Now the fun part, I know the rear slider will use magnetic switches but what will work best for the tool box, pins or magnetic switches? It is one of those diamond plate aluminum tool boxes.

Pin switches seem to get in the way for people with tool boxes. I always get them back bent or broke. Magnetic switches R good or U could use Mercury switches

Thanks Mo...never thought of the mercury switches...those might work better and be easier to install
