    Other than Meso Customs and Expedition Essentials who make a 3D printed mount for a switch pro located overhead, is there any other alternatives? I like the Meso cutout overhead, but it's out of stock, and I'm not getting any responses about availability.

    I really like this: https://mesocustoms.com/collections...-overhead-switch-panel?variant=19983117418609

    ...but I'm about to give up on that.

    Anyone with a SP, where else are you mounting them?

    I had one other location before my final spot now. Much easier to reach in shifter console 7F5F1FB8-3D47-4E6D-8660-6B39E6FC0949.jpgDB699EA7-F2A7-4412-A347-50EAA4E252B5.jpg

    I love the left and right individual light options. I’ve been wanting to do that for my ditch lights.

    I ended up buying that 3D flush mount from @XPOTRPR and I’m going to mount it up to my 2nd sunglasses holder. Perfect spot for me.

    :cheers: as for install, just use the provided template to cut out the opening for the switchpro. trace the inside with sharpie, Take your time and work up to those cut lines using a drill for the corners and dremel for the rest. do test fits with the switchpro until it's a nice tight fit. Its all based off friction fit.

    Is that mounted on top of the shifter console or did you have to cut it out to mount it? I like this spot. Seems like it would be easier to reach when you need it.

    Yeah I like that idea better. I have my ditch light switch in one of the blanks under the ac but I would much rather have those right there under my arm. Specially if like me you like to drive with ditch lights on when no one is around.

    Hahaha. Yep exactly. I feel like I have to be careful how I say that so I don’t sound like a poacher. Hahaha
