    yeah see thats the thing, I dont want it to light up like that. I want it ON in the center all the time, and the side thats selected ON.

    cant be done because there are no middle leds. there is way to add more relays to have the LEDs be dim, then switched on go to full brightness. thats as close as I can get. thats why im going back and forth between the 2 options.. gotta see what the S pod does now too.

    How would you label it and how do you want it to function?

    thats the other thing. I gotta find switches that have the description in the middle, and just led light indicators on each end.

    That's going to be tough to find an LED there, since the rocker pivots in the center also.

    http://www.12voltunlimited.com/ can do custom backlit switch panels for a chuck of change.

    exactly. thats why we were trying the Dimming method. but its just gonna be bulky, more wiring, more expensive, etc. Thats why I thought the SwitchPro would be better. it has 2 more slots so I can run the 3 pole lighting on independent switches and still have 2 left over. if I did that with a rocker setup.. I would use all of them and not have any open spots afterwards.

    Do you really need an automated fleshlight in the Tacoma though?

    Thanks buddy. I know we just talked a little bit about it. after contacting sPOD and SwitchPro both.. and looking into all the options more... the SwitchPro is just the better bang for the buck. more features, small, more switches, etc. I think it will work the best honestly. keep all my lighting on this, and do mechanical switches in the sunglasses holder or wherever for air, winch, etc.
