Billet Switch Panel

my2ks10xtreme · 03-05-2008, 08:18 PM

So I decided I wanted to be different and save a little cash on my switch box so I decided to design one to fit where the cd holder is in the center console.

A forum member that is local works at a machine shop and he cut me out a billet piece from my design on CAD.

First picture will be the design before it was cut, second picture is the cut piece not polished, third/forth picture is of the panel polished.

Tonight I will put my switches in the panel and wire up the switches, this is just the begining phase of my truck getting bagged, I have everything just taking my time with it...

9 switches for the bags, 1 switch to cut off the pressure switch, the other for my in dash bypass, and the circle is for the key lock.

What you guys think?

Thanks!

All the switches, SD switch box wire, panel, diodes, etc. ran me a little under $50, cant beat that!

my2ks10xtreme · 03-05-2008, 11:38 PM

Bad boy is all polished up and switches are all in, now I just have to wire them, fun fun!! I'm not diggin the key switch so I will have to search for a more flush mounted one...

Twin-10s · 03-05-2008, 11:40 PM

looks like you guys did a good job polishing it Tom.

now get that sh!t in!

hispanic88 · 03-06-2008, 01:13 AM

that looks sweet!

my2ks10xtreme · 03-06-2008, 04:17 AM

Ok so I just finished hooking up the valves to the switch panel and all the switches click the right valve!!! The wiring didn't turn out as clean as I wanted it to but I just wanted to make sure it worked which it does!!!

Check out the pics...

Dvst8r · 03-06-2008, 04:19 AM

my2ks10xtreme · 03-06-2008, 04:22 AM

Thanks guys for all the compliments! This was much more involved than I thought it was but so worth it in the end!!

tolowinorlando · 03-06-2008, 04:26 AM

jakefiddlesticks · 03-06-2008, 04:53 AM

So if I ever get pulled over I can lock it and wont work if the cop trys to give me crap, I should of just put a toggle to cut the power on the switches, oh well it is what it is I guess.

I was back and forth too much on the whole design, and after all i wish I did it a little differently.

Plus I can just lock it if someone else drives it so they dont play with the switches...

purplepassion · 03-06-2008, 05:32 AM

damn man, looks alot better than i thought it would

I'm very happy with it, I may get another one made change around a few things but all the wiring/diodes just sucks, took me so long to wire it all up. Maybe later down the line when I'm fully bagged I can redo it and sell this one.

I can go ahead and ask, so you just want a billet piece that fits in the console cut out but no holes or anything for switches right??

And everyone else thanks for all the compliments!!! I wanted something different/original and I think I achieved it!!
