Here is my AHC Controller write up a week after the install with the perfect amount of time to play around with it. (MY APOLOGIES FOR BEING SLOW ON THIS I'VE BEEN HELLA BUSY.)
So i got it in the mail the product itself came in a zip-lock baggy with everything you need! Nothing was floating around in the box.

So began by pulling the underside of the dash out, and the top piece decided to come out as well. No worries though it was just on clips. When pulling out the underside of the dash i would just recommend being cautious to not crack any of the plastic tabs as well as plastic plugs for windows, and mirror switches.

Also under the dash they instruct you to unbolt the metal plate that looks somewhat like a heat shield. For some reason mine was rusting so i sanded down the coating a bit and just hit it with some black spray paint.

They indicated that you should solder the wires together for the AHC controller and the Vehicles computer but when i went to go get my soldering iron fired up it was broken so i used splice connectors instead and zip tied them up so they wouldn't be pulled on.
In regards to the wiring on this kit, i don't consider myself to be extremely skilled when it comes to wiring but i've wired a lot of different things and i found this to be a pretty easy install. Cut two wires, install four, pretty simple stuff. In regards to the accessory power i played around with a test light in the connectors for the window controls because i assumed their would be a back light or something that would have acc power. So that's where i tapped into. The ground was grounded to somewhere on the steering column i forgot but i just crimped a ring terminal onto it and called it bueno.
The indicator light has a red/green LED. RED when the controller is on and Green when the system is working as factory.
I drilled out one of the dummy switches and epoxyed it in.
I went to go mall crawl in a parking lot to test it out!
Overall thoughts on the kit: I really enjoyed how easy it was to install and the look was perfect for what i was looking for. I am building this truck on somewhat of a budget so this was a good place holder until i can afford the OME cheese and maybe upgraded shocks. SLEE made a quality little product that gives anybody with AHC the option to get a little bit more out of their truck for a great price.
