LED Glow & Center Dash Switches

Couldn't find any info on switches that fit the center dash slots. So I got somewhat creative. Bought two standard appliance rocker switches on Amazon. Measured the space I need for the switch to be able to clip on. Then I got my measurements for the switch blanks. Found a company online that offered cheap laser cutting. They supplied a 3mm thick sheet of ABS Plastic. I sent them an image made in Adobe Illustrator of a piece that is the same size of the factory dash blanks but with a cutout big enough to clip in the switch, and I asked for very thin spacer rings to stack behind it.

The slots for the switch blanks are 10mm deep and have a ridge for the clips. So I used 1mm thick 3m double sided tape/adhesive then two of these spacers superglued together.

Had my LED Glow for wired to the switches today, the switches with the panel they clip in fit flush but I need to super glue the edges of the spacers and stick it on so itll stay in place as one piece.

Anyways, looks great, the laser cutting company charged me a $25 minimum so they sent me 5 sets of what I asked for. Hope all of that made sense

 

I have no idea why those pictures ended up upside down, they are the correct position on my phone and computer.

 

Cool mod, I see what you did there. Looks good!

 

Thanks, yeah I love having those switches, they look clean, I wouldn't be suprised if I found some aftermarket ones that would fit now that I already had those panels laser cut.

 

hey jake, i was wondering, how similar are those to the size of our fog light switches, also
