Default Custom Switch Panel, pic



Anyone know where i could get this panel? Without the switches, i already have switches. I just need the panel. Any ideas/tips on materials, measurements & where to get them at to make it myself?

Is this the plate for the convertible top switch? If it is it is not the same panel as in the pic. The panel in the pic above is one piece and covers the lil tray area and cig. lighter area.

could be a flat piece of textured plastic from a plastic supply place just cut to a specific length and height, I made one like that but went with a factory top switch.

That is wider than the ragtop plate. I did the ragtop switch plate mod back in 98, I think I may have been the first.

Anyhoo, I sure like that plate, I could use one too. Where is that pic ripped from?

Yes autozone sells the cheap top gun flip switch, but a real air plane switch is way more! I got a realy f14 gunner flip switch. Has 6 scew fittings on the back and the switch lever is spring loaded so when the red cover opens the switch is on! I was told that they are like $500. Don't know why so much but I guess F14's are expensive!

I didn't pay for it uncle at GM got it for me!

I made a panel for my push button starter switch out of a sheet of textured ABS/PVC blend plastic...you can get it from McMaster-Carr for about $8.00. The part number is 87265K24. You can cut, drill, file, and sand this stuff and it matches the interior plastic fairly well.

So the ones pictured are available at autozone? I've seen some online but they look more bulky.

the autozone ones look alright, but they aren't near as cool looking as the ones already shown.

So does anybody know where I can find some that are near-identical to the ones pictured? Thanks.
