sPOD install 2017 Yukon

[Cody W]

Posting this to try to gauge interest in whether or not people would like to see a write up on how I'm going to install my sPOD in my 2017 Yukon Denali. For those unfamiliar to the sPOD it's basically a power distribution block and switch panel for accessories like light bars or other auxiliary items. Popular in the jeep and off-road community. It was installed in my now sold 2017 Sierra 1500. I don't see much information on off-road style auxiliary switches other than single toggle switches. If there's enough interest I'll document how I went about the install.



Switch panel mocked up where I'll be placing it in the suv. Not wired yet.

Knowledge is power. If you write it up, we will consume it.

Do you plan to make it hidden when not needed ?

I like the idea, but I would prefer it hidden if chosen.

Nice write ups are always welcome.

Without disconnecting the switch panel, no. This switch panel is run with a single ethernet cable and will be mounted using Ram mount hardware. With a simple twist of the locking mechanism and disconnecting the cable, the panel can be removed and stored away if you are concerned about theft. The switch panel is too big to be mounted inside the pocket area to be able to use the cover.

You might as well write it up. Everything on y’all toob is about installing those in a taco.
