When it comes to outfitting your rig with additional lighting and accessories, nobody likes messy wiring or drilling unnecessary holes. That’s where the Trigger Controller comes in — a wireless switch system designed to make adding lights, compressors, and other gear easier and cleaner than ever. Whether you’re building out a Jeep, Bronco, RAM or Toyota truck, this setup is all about control, convenience, and keeping your ride looking sharp.
Why Go Wireless?
Traditional installs often mean routing wires through your firewall, drilling into panels, and cluttering up your dash with extra switches. The Trigger Controller eliminates all of that by using wireless RF control. That means less time with a drill in your hand and more time out on the trails.
The Benefits of a No-Drill Install
- Preserve Your Vehicle: Easier install without running wiring through the firewall.
- Fast Setup: Mount the Trigger Controller base under the hood, pair it to your phone or wireless RF remote, and you’re ready to run your lights.
- Clean Interior: With no need for bulky rocker switches or cluttered panels, your cabin keeps its factory look.
Mounting Options Made Simple
One of the best parts of the Trigger Controller is its flexibility. Using custom brackets and simple under-hood mounting locations, you can secure the unit without drilling. Common spots include:
- Inner fender wells
- Near Battery trays
- Accessory mounting brackets (like those designed for Jeep JL/JT or Ford Bronco)
These options keep the system out of the way but still accessible if you need to add or change connections.
Control at Your Fingertips
Once installed, you can manage everything directly from:
- The included wireless RF remote
- Your smartphone via the Trigger app (iOS/Android)
- Optional integration with touchscreen controllers
This setup gives you flexibility — whether making a statement at the meetup, setting up camp lighting, or hitting the trail at night.
The Bottom Line
If you’re looking for a clean, professional-grade install without drilling or cutting, the Trigger Controller is the way to go. It saves time, keeps your rig looking factory-fresh, and gives you wireless control over your favorite accessories.
