I'm curious as to how this works out compared to the SLP one. For that price if it works like it says it does...I will have to get one.

That is the switch that I ran in my Camaro. It works just the same as the SLP switch for less cash!

only thing I don't like about it is that you tap into wires..i was curious if it still let the fans do their thing if you didn't move it...and what wires do you tap into? thanks. I also like the factory look with the slp one.

Yes the fans still work as usual. The directions that come with the fan switch clearly explain what wires to tap into.

I have this fan switch with blue and red LEDs. Its a nice piece. The only complaint I could think of is shipping took pretty long but I'm guessing that is because I ordered it with the custom LED colors.

Good price, I built my own back in 01' and had to tap into the fuse box and run wires, real pain plus I had no lights.
