Ideas for the overhead aux. switches.
 
Passenger seat ejector, oil slick, metal tacks deployer, popup mini guns. 😎

Lol... in all actuality I got an ARB to put inside OEM underseat lockable storage so that'll be switch one, and I will eventually hook the others up to fender vent, running board, and wheel well LEDs.
 
What is an ARB? Newbie here….

ARB is a brand of air compressor. It's an onboard air compressor, meaning it's mounted somewhere on the vehicle versus being portable.

Actually ARB is an Australian outback brand they do all sorts of equipment. My overland awnings are ARB.

That's cool, didn't know. I always knew them for air equipment. TIL!
 
I was going to try to hook up my dashcam to one.. I haven't hidden the wire yet, so it's just dangling with the excess in the top glove box.. doesn't look too bad, but I know in some states just having a wire dangling is considered blocking your view or something

This is a good idea, there is a hardwire kit for mine, I could also hardwire my radar detector to one!
 
Sterile light, Fasten seatbelt and no smoking signs are going to have to be my first switches!
Lol. I thought the same. I’m just upset they operate like the 737 lights an not Airbus lights!! Backwards to turn on in my mind Is how it should work.

They also make high end suspension through their child company Old Man Emu. I run them on my Tacoma and 4Runner.

Yea, Embraer is the same dang Brazilians! . Still gets me from time to time!
 
Speaking of aux switches, do all Tremors come with them, or just certain packages (i.e. 402A, Trailer Tow, etc.)? I don't remember seeing them as an option when I ordered mine, and I just went back into the build page on the website, and can't find them. So I'm assuming they're part of a package?

Smoke screen... magnetic mines... drone launcher...
 
Finally utilized Aux1, hooked up my radar detector 🤣
 
I was considering this as well lol. Which did you go with?
First aux, radar mounted on my rear view mirror. Power on with key which is nice
