Component Specifications

What Is and Is NOT Included

Critical Compatibility

• Fits 2023–2026 Ford F-250 Super Duty and F-350 Super Duty only.
• Mini6 switch panel is designed to replace the factory sunglass holder in the upper console. Confirm your truck's upper console includes this factory sunglass holder location before ordering.
• This SKU operates on 12 VDC only — it does not support 24 VDC systems.
• This is a Built to Order product — contact OFAS before ordering to confirm availability and lead time.
• Use only the included sPOD battery cables on the positive and negative terminal studs of the SourceLT board. Attaching any other cable to these terminals voids the warranty.
• Connecting battery cables with reversed polarity voids the warranty.
• Do not connect an aftermarket brake controller, high-amp solenoid, or high-amp relay to the same positive battery post used by the SourceLT system. Per manufacturer documentation, this causes irreversible damage and voids all warranties.
• Do not cut, splice, or otherwise modify the supplied wiring, connectors, or switches, and do not remove actuators without the manufacturer's specific actuator removal tool. Any such modification voids the warranty.
• Water, liquid, or chemical damage to any electrical component voids the warranty.

Installation Notes

Professional installation is strongly recommended. This installation involves removing interior trim panels including the driver-side dash endcap, grab handle trim, A-pillar trim (airbag caution applies), sun visor, and sunglass holder assembly. The 15-foot ethernet cable is routed through the upper console, across the headliner, down the A-pillar, through the dash, and through the firewall into the engine compartment to connect to the SourceLT PCM. The PCM bracket mounts between the battery box and fender. Both batteries must be disconnected before beginning installation.

Required tools: 10mm socket, 13mm wrench, 7/16" socket, 2.5mm hex key, 3mm hex key, T10 Torx bit, T20 Torx bit, trim removal tools.

Before beginning: Park the vehicle on level ground with the parking brake engaged. Disconnect the negative battery cable from both batteries before starting.

After installation: Tie all wires away from sharp, hot, and rotating components. Re-torque all fasteners after the first 100 miles.

Refer to the current sPOD/Baja Designs installation instructions for this SKU (FGXX_870142-INS_001) for complete procedures, torque specifications, and all safety requirements. A color copy of the instructions is available at BajaDesigns.com under your vehicle-specific application.

The Obsidian Take

The 870142 is sPOD's Mini6 switch panel power management solution for the 2023–2026 F-250/F-350 Super Duty — 6 circuits at 30 amps each, with the Mini6 panel replacing the factory sunglass holder for a factory-finish appearance. The installation is more involved than a typical switch panel: both batteries must be disconnected, the A-pillar trim and sunglass holder assembly must be removed, and a 15-foot ethernet cable is routed through the headliner and down the A-pillar (with airbag awareness required). Buyers comparing this to the 870140 BantamX Touchscreen kit should note key differences: the SourceLT provides 6 circuits (not 8), uses a physical Mini6 switch panel rather than a 3.5-inch digital touchscreen, operates on 12 VDC only (not 12 or 24 VDC), and does not include uLINK scalability or dual controller ports. Built to Order — call ahead to confirm availability before placing the order.

This Product Is For You If

• You own a 2023–2026 Ford F-250 or F-350 Super Duty with the factory sunglass holder in the upper console.
• You want a factory-integrated Mini6 physical switch panel rather than a digital touchscreen controller.
• You need 6 independently controlled, 30-amp circuits with Bluetooth app programming.
• You want built-in low-voltage cutoff protection.
• Your vehicle runs a 12 VDC electrical system.
• You are prepared for a multi-step interior installation involving A-pillar trim removal and dual-battery disconnection.

This Product Is Not For You If

• Your vehicle is not a 2023–2026 Ford F-250 or F-350 Super Duty.
• Your truck's upper console does not have a factory sunglass holder in the location this kit replaces.
• You need more than 6 circuits.
• You need 24 VDC compatibility — see the BantamX-based kits for 12/24 VDC support.
• You prefer a digital touchscreen controller — see SKU 870140.
• You plan to connect an aftermarket brake controller, high-amp solenoid, or high-amp relay to the same positive battery post as the SourceLT.
• You plan to cut, splice, or modify the supplied wiring.
