    once the switch is in position you cant tell anything was filed down, if your careful of course. In my pic I have at one time altered every blank slot in my dash. The blanks still fit in the shaved spots as if it were never altered.

    Take the little "holder" compartment out then put your hand up in where the open "holder thingy" was and pop it out.

    hey tacokev, do you have any part numbers available for those?
    I bought a carling from ottrattw but am having second thoughts as it doesn't look quite as smooth as yours.
