Default Nitrous activation switches/panel

Do you guys know where I can find a decent nitrous switch panel that will fit in the ashtray area on my Z06? If not, what and where are you placing them? Has anyone used the one from NX? It would only need to be a 3 switch panel, arm, heater and purge. Any photos would help.
Thanks guys for your help!!!

Ashtray location is perfect, I saw one setup that was under the center console that looked great too (even had the gauge there ).

Do you by any chance have any pics of that? I was interested in getting one myself. Thanks

Robert has a pic of I believe the NX panel on his site in his Corvette.
I think its picture #6

http://home.comcast.net/~weaver.robe...ue-skip-5.html

Here is what I am doing (or a variation of this) Likely going to ditch the lights and put the C-5 Logo there.






A supporting vendor may have a few of these on hand in a couple of days...

Thanks, the new stainless version is even better

I like beers panel and it appears well laid out. The NX panles are nice, but seem kinda bulky.

The NX 3 switch panel fits nice until you try to wire it up. Check this out for some ideas.

You can't tell from this pic but, it doesn't fit very well, it won't let you close the door all the way. You can push it back into place but it requires some force.

I think I'm going to like it when I get it to fit right.
