On the 2024 RTL's, there is an extra rocker switch slot. Is there a specific rocker switch to be used? What am I looking for; size, etc.. Want to use the rocker switch to turn on/off running/fog lights. Example; TricLED Dynamic Driving Light Kit for the Can-Am Spyder F3 Models (2019+) & RT Models (2020+). :dontknow::dontknow:

They are Carling L-series rocker switches. I used one for the driving lights on my 2022.

shanks004, what lights did you get? Is your switch an on/off? I'm looking at the Slingmods light's, which are TricLEDs.

Is this the correct switch for an on/off with the correct dimensions?

"Carling Technologies L11D1S001-AZZ00-000 Switch, Rocker, L SERIES, NON-Lighted, SPST, ON-NONE-OFF, 22.1MM X 44.1MM MOUNTI"

Did you get a 2 or 3 prong switch? I assume the 3rd prong is for the LED light in the switch?

Doing some research - any update on these Carling Switches?

They look like the right one, but does anyone make them in orange dual light and lettering?

I was looking for the same thing. Following. Update: Cursory search of Carling Technologies illuminated Rocker switches via Amazon shows many options both illuminated and not illuminated. Here's an example of an illuminated one, not sure if it is the right size but they have many sizes to pick from. This one happens to be waterproof marine grade:

Personally, I am considering this option, comes in either 4, 6, 8 or 12 button:

Just depends upon whether or not I can find a place to mount the interface that doesn't look gaudy; and whether or not I can protect the control panel from the elements.

I’m pretty sure that’s not a real carling - it’s one word not 2

I got one from an official carling dealer and it was actually reasonable, you also need to buy the top.

Whatever the switch is called, be very careful when cutting out the hole to install it. It's very easy to make the hole too large, leaving the switch difficult to use. Don't ask me how I know that.

Lol! I was wondering about that until a friend of mine popped it out using a small flat-head screw driver.

On the 2024 like mine, there’s no need to drill or cut anything. There’s a cap that you can easily pop out and slide in the Carling Switch. I have done that on mine.

I ordered the above switch from Amazon and it fit like a charm. I used a small screwdriver and the blank switch popped out with no effort. I connected my auxiliary lights and it works great. Thank for everyone's guidance.

Smoky65: Do I need a 3 pole switch to be able to run my yellow lights or my white lights? I would like to have the ON-OFF-ON so I can choose either color. Also need wiring schematic. Thanks!

My switch is 5 poles (ON/OFF switch), it lights up orange, it has a 2+ 1 for the top, and 1 for the bottom light, a negative and a + in and + out for the driving light.

So it depends, they have ton of different switches, tops are extra as well.
