    Ahhh yes. That's a nice spot, but I use that cubby.
    I believe I'm going to use one of my sunglass holders up top,

    I believe they're all MicTuning switches. I acquired most from others here, and maybe one from eBay...

    I have two sunglasses cubbies. Now only one with the switch panel in one. But my Oakleys don’t fit in either so it was no loss for me.

    I had mine installed at Mobile Living in Concord. They did a great job. The panel is secure. Even banging around on the Rubicon didn’t pop it open.

    Ha!

    Yes. I used a Synergy latch and spindle for mine. I might rebuild it. I'm not too happy with it anymore. Could be a lot better.

    I installed it following these instructions https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/diy-build-and-install-a-bussmann-rtmr-fuse-relay-block.399454/

    As long as you dont have too much wire behind the switches, it will sit flush. You could also use some right angle female spade connectors and it will reduce the needed space behidn the panel.

    I've had mine up there for ~2 years without issues. door has never accidentally opened (when pushing switches or any other time).
