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

    Mictuning seems to be pretty popular for the narrow switches. I got mine from both Cruiserheads and from AliExpress. Cruiserheads was more expensive, but I liked their button graphics better. AliExpress is dirt cheap (~$3-4 per switch) but shipping takes forever and you pretty much have to set aside a weekend to wade through all the offerings.

    I should really learn to read. @mthopton was asking about blanks, not switches.

    I've yet to install the 3 switch plate, however, when I do, can someone advise what color wire on the OEM switch do I tap into so that the aftermarket switches light-up with the dash light. Thanks!

    Request. Can you make a pair of OEM foglight housings that'll fit Rigid Dually/D2 square led lights? I want to keep my truck's appearance as stock as possible. Would buy in a heartbeat if there's an OEM foglight housing that'll fits aftermarket LED lights. Pic below for reference.

    I would buy a set as well. Not sure how well 3D printed parts would stand up to UV. Wish Rigid would offer this.

    Rigid is working on this piece, I reached out to them about a month ago. It's in development.

    That's good, I don't think it's a good candidate for a printed part anyway. Too much heat coming off of LED housings for me to feel confident in the part's longevity. Plus, I'd estimate printed part cost would be huge through Shapeways for something of that size, probably around $70-80 per side before my cut.

    This was a fantastic find, thanks for making this piece available to everyone. I wasn't able to get free shipping but I was able to find a $10 off coupon on retailmenot's website.
    Can someone point me to where I can find the blanks that will fit into the 3 switch housing.

    I believe I found those flip brand switches and blanks. The blanks don't look stock if this is what was discussed. Here's the link. https://squareup.com/market/bpgb

    Those Flip switches and blanks all look to be Carling style. Unless they have some Toyota style ones I'm not seeing, nothing there will work in this application.

    Just ordered this!! Like the idea of having the switches up there rather than one down at the one available blank. Dont see what I can possibly use that small cubby hole for anyway
