Switch Panel on console

M.J. · 10-01-2009, 03:20 AM

I was getting PM's about the switches I used on my interior light install so I thought I'd just post the info here too if anyone needed a source.

Switch Panel on console

I picked up a few of these.

form here
Switch

Pop the dummy covers out and these drop right in. You need to radius the two outside corners on the right and left switch but otherwise it's a drop in.

+1...Nice job...

Very nice switches, looks OEM to me. If I decide to add something, this is the route to go.

Those look cool, Could we hook those switches up to something useful?

kenchan · 10-01-2009, 04:08 PM

i suppose if i was to do it again, i would use one of the rocker switches as my dvd bypass switch. it appears they sell momentary versions too.

im planning to do some interior lighting so it will work great for
that.

how about wiring one up to the rear fog light?

how about a forward facing fog light?

can also use that as your stereo's bypass switch to your rear
speakers if you have them or an aftermarket sub. (they have
DPDT as well).

many different ideas.

Anyone have any tips on getting the dummy covers out? Can it be done without removing the entire center console? I've scratched up that little area and ruined one butter knife already...

LiquidZ · 10-02-2009, 11:33 AM

Very clean.

i think it's just grab the cup holder and pull up.

if you need to wire something, just use your high-tech wire coat hanger tool... or equivalent.

nice work. Looks like factory.

theDreamer · 10-02-2009, 12:22 PM
