I made a thing for switches because the thing I wanted didn't exist.

    if it held more I'd be interested.
    I'm looking more for 3-4 switches.

    There's a three switch version (first mention in post #23), but there's no way you're getting four with any kind of stock look in there.

    I might pick it up then and then look elsewhere for other switch mounting.

    Once I get my taco I'll need a place for the compressor and locker switch + front and rear lights so

    Installed mine today. Two switches (one for power to a radio and the other with no purpose yet) and a blank.

    I was ordering something unrelated this afternoon and I noticed that Shapeways isn't charging shipping on orders over $25 through March 13th. Easy way to save ~$5 on this thing I made.

    Don't have my truck yet but I got the bezel in the mail the other day. Pretty bad ass... Thanks for putting in the time on this bud.

    Happy to, plus I sell something in the neighborhood of 10 more and the whole endeavour will have paid for itself (I should probably have marked it up a little more, but it seems pretty spendy already to me), another couple hundred and I'll also cover the cost of the compressor...

    As awesome as that is (and don't get me wrong, it is), it won't fit. It's Carling/ARB style and they are simple too tall for that location without hacking up the lower dash.

    This panel looks great, thanks! One switch installed for below grill light bar on order, with two blanks for something down the road. Will update when installed.
