6 switch plate (under radio location)

Hey Bennett, does your aftermarket radio have it's own bracket? Sometimes the aftermarket brackets for the radio are not real well centered with the factory location, which will put the switch bracket a little low. Just a thought, but remove the radio/switch bracket as a whole and check to see if everything is bolted together just right, and lined up with the factory holes. I had a similar issue with mine, and ended up getting a different aftermarket radio bracket. Once I did that the switches were perfect. Mind you mine didn't rub on the radio trim bezel, but it was closer than I liked it to be.

 

I'm fairly certain I removed all and just used the factory mounting bracket but I will take it out and confirm on Wednesday. Thanks for the tip

 

I can, however, i normally only do these on the weekend, and i will be out camping this weekend. but let me see what i can draw up for you.

hmm, not sure why its doing that, maybe try loosing up the two panels and push it up a bit to give a little more room. if it still fails, send it back and i can refund you. dont want any unhappy customers

 

Looks awesome. I appreciate it man. Just ordered and noted the custom plate. Thanks again.

 

Thanks. I would be interested to see how it looks.

 

Yeah x2 on what the others said. It's probably just an alignment issue. I have almost the exact radio as well (but daystar switches) and I have no rub issues. I actually have tiny gaps.

 

alright i hope so glad that its not a common issue
wednesday it is coming apart!!

also, what are peoples opinions on unplugging airbag?

 

I take it that you are talking about the switch that enables/disables the pass. side airbag. If so, it doesn't hurt anything. I did it about 3 times this weekend and have done it a bunch in the past as well.

 

so something like this?

 

I was able to resolve my issue today. What happened was I had the exterior trim (lip) on my radio when I installed the switch plate. Well when I reassembled everything, to get the dash together I had to take off the exterior trim (lip) of the radio. I totally forgot about it, and when I took it apart I realized there was a gap between the plate and radio. loosen bolts, readjusted and tightened. no more rubbing. boy am i much happier now!

big thanks for stepping up to the plate and honoring your product regardless of what was to arise from the situation.

 

Here is the final wiring set up for my 6 switches....

 

looks good. still have lots in stock

 

PM Sent.

 

Received my panel today, looks great, cant wait to install it! The Atomic Fireball was a nice touch ha ha

 

Where are you guys getting the blanks for the switches at?

 

most people are getting them from OTRATTW
i will see if i can stock a few also

 

Sounds good. I just ordered a dash kit from you and working on picking out what switches i wanna use. But i know i'll need a couple blanks for the time being.

 

Terrible picture, but just installed the plate on my 91 pickup. Fits great, now to find a stereo I like haha. This one will be for lights only, thinking of getting the 4 slot ash tray plate for my accessories such as air compressor, winch, etc.

 

Are these fitting 2nd gen tacos also? I might need one in the future
