Default Custom Made (by me) Nitrous Arming Switch Panel **PICS**

Well, after thinking about it I decided to put my arming switches and LC-1 calibration switch/led where the ash tray was. Since no one makes a switch panel for us I made my own. It still needs to be primed and sanded a couple times then hit with the "rubberized" paint to match the dash but overall I like the way it looks and fits AND I can still close the ash tray with the switches in there:

Cool, if you want to spend a little extra $$$ I bet you could take it to a lazer/water jet place and have them cut one perfect. Just give them yours to take measurements off of then they can make everything symetrical.

Either way it looks great.

I ended up having Beer from the nitrous forums make me a custom switch panel that will fit EXACTLY as the ash tray did. Should have it by next Wednesday for my install!

It didnt look 100% factory....I actually finished it in SWADE...and i would say it was like a 93% fit. The ash tray closed, it worked good, but I am picky!
