my switch panel hey guys,
i have this burried in a thread of mine in the appearance section, but its for my nitrous setup so i wanted to show it off here.
here is a pic of my switch panel that I made.
Switch Panel Pic
its plexaglass. I painted the backside black and then CNC'ed it from the back. I'm going to use the ashtray light underneath it so it will illuminate the lettering red at night. should look pretty cool
the holes on the top are for my switches
arm is to arm nitrous,
open to open the bottle
heat for the bottle heater
the center hole, left side is for the LED to let me know my cutout is fully opened
the center hold right side is for the switch for my line lock
bottom left is for the switch for my electric cutout
bottom right is for my purge push button
i didn't really like the ones i saw forsale online, so I made this one. Plus nobody else has one like it

i haven't fit it yet. I think I am going to mount it to the ashtray, and cut off the bottom of the ashtray to run the wires through. (so i'm looking for a spare ashtray if anyone has one)
probably wont have it all wired up until december since i'm heading for school soon

Matt, glad to see your making use of your buddies CNC machine. Looks really good and will look awesome with a backlight. I would expect to have some people harrasing you for some of those.

The guy whose CNC I used at first said that he wouldn't be interested in small jobs like that. But when I told him what the other switch panels go for, he changed his mind!
Once I get it done and if I have enough people interested, I'll see if he can run off a couple more. Only took a couple minutes, and thats because we were running the machine slow so it wouldn't melt the plastic
