    I know, plenty of people already make the switch plate for the third gens. I want to make my own, well, because I can. I have a laser cutter available to me, so I'm going to make my own two-piece switch place that can be easily removed from the cab-side.

    Can anyone confirm the dimensions of the switch body as being 29mm x 15mm? I don't have a switch handy to test with.









    Thanks

    can't you remove the blank one right below it and measure the opening? that would be the tall switch then the ones next to it are the short switches.
