    Pretty sure that's too long. Each of the small switches in the 5w x 2h uses ~1" and the extra spaces between and at the ends doesn't add uo to another 2 13/16". Looks like around 7" total width.

    Little trimming and sanding, could probably make it work. Will have to do some measuring in the morning.

    @mesojdm do the 6 and 10 switch panels include the filler blanks, or are they separate? I assume you are making them too?

    Ok I'm going to be on the lookout for these when they come in stock again! The long switch on is for the OTTRAW switches I assume and the short ones are for the factory style?

    They are both factory style switches, long and short. I’ve got mine for other purposes from mic-tuning. On a 2015 I have long switches on the left of the steering column and short ones under the a/c controls. I’m not sure of the technical terms though, let’s see if the almighty @mesojdm can clarify it better if you want :D
