AEV Switch Pod Kit 13-18 Ram
Description
No, this is not a universal switch pod that you install using double sided sticky tape. This Switch Pod from AEV is designed specifically for the 2013-2018 Rams to provide provisions to mount up to six auxiliary switches for controlling lighting, an air compressor, literally any 12 volt accessory, all at your fingertips.
Auxiliary driving lights, an LED light bar, front and rear lockers, and an on-board air compressor are all common upgrades for any off-road enthusiast, but finding a convenient and easily accessible mounting location for all those switches can be daunting task. AEV's Switch Pod for the 2013-2018 Ram is designed for the DIY installer who is looking for a clean, functional mounting location for up to six auxiliary switches.
Specifically molded to fit the contours of the Ram's dash board without being too obtrusive, this switch pod sits just above the radio, keeping all your important switches safely within arm's reach. The AEV Switch Pod is painted black to match the Ram's dark interior trim pieces but can be custom painted to match any color combination. Installation is very straight forward and will take less than an hour on most trucks.
AEV recommends using Carling Contura II rocker switches (not included) but a number of other aftermarket switches may also work.

About AEV | American Expedition Vehicles
American Expedition Vehicles (AEV), based out of Missoula, Montana, has been building custom vehicles designed to tackle the rigors of off-roading, overlanding, and general day to day commuting since 1997. AEV originally gained a substantial amount of publicity with their line of stretched Jeeps that dds a pickup-style bed behind the cab area, creating a highly functional and visually appealing work of art. This unique upgrade melded with additional suspension and powertrain upgrades from AEV has created a vehicle that many would argue should have been available from the factory.
With the Jeep market cornered, American Expedition Vehicles unveiled its lineup for the Ram Heavy Duty market in 2014, dubbing this new application the Prospector. The Prospector has taken the same approach that AEV has always taken, to produce products that serve a functional purpose and design and build these products to a standard that exceed even OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturing) standards. With the original unveiling of the Prospector at the SEMA Show in 2014, AEV has gained and continued to build on the notoriety they have had for years in the Jeep market, but now within the Ram HD community. While its true there are numerous other companies producing wheels, bumpers, and suspension systems for this application, you would be hard pressed to find another company that does it with the amount of finesse as AEV. And even more difficult, a company that has built all of their components to work in harmony with one another, but work just as well when used as individual components.
We at Diesel Power Products are extremely proud to have the opportunity to be labeled as an Authorized Dealer of AEV products because we know that without a doubt, we can confidently recommend their products because they truly perform as advertised, and fit like they came from the factory. Does the fact that they have a manufacturing headquarters in Detroit, Michigan just down the road from the automakers have anything to do with that? Probably, but we'll let the product speak for itself.

So easy
"It was so easy to install and the instructions were so accurate I thought I must have done something wrong."
Perfection
"Once I decided to add more than 1 switch I noticed the space available in the Rebel was limited and this provided the perfect solution. I made my own relay board and wiring harnesses to go along with this for a factory look that works exactly how I hoped. I would recommend getting the available harnesses and power module if you aren't experienced in making your own. Very easy installation, worth the money."
It turns me on. . .
"Worked perfectly and looks darn near like it came from the factory. Very happy with this. . I did have it installed professionally and was told it was a bit harder than described. . but they were very impressed with it . ."
Awesome unit

Great product exactly what I was looking for
"Was searching everywhere for a guage pod and then came across this and decided to give it a try. Installed it in my 2016 Ram and couldn't be happier, hooked up my accessories on switches and the outcome was amazing. Thanks for making my truck complete."

Q&A
- What other rocker options were used? I tried to search for the recommended ones, but they were electric stores that hard to search

- Does this come with switches or no?
- AEV recommends using Carling Contura II rocker switches (not included) but a number of other aftermarket switches may also work. -Sands
- Does this come with the 6 buttons or do those need to be purchased seperately?
- They need to be purchased separately. DppSands
- I have both a 2011 and a 2017 Ram 2500. Will it the AEV switch pod fit my 2011 the dash looks identical to my 2017 ?
- Not aware of it fitting the 2011 trucks. Only 13+ confirmed. SNA
- When will this product be able for purchase? I'd like to purchase one ASAP and convert it to a gauge pod.
- No ETA at this time. They are working on getting it out ASAP.
