try adding more key words such as switch placement, switch location, etc. and any other terms to help narrow it down some

How did this go, did you get the switches in place ?

Do you have an OHC, you could do as I did and put one in but without the digital read out portion and add switches in place of it, out of the way, neat and easy.

Close up of the panel.
The two larger switches are for the Map Lights.
the four smaller switches are for lighting, maybe the main power control for my rear circuit panels.

You can do almost any thing you want.

I added more holes for the LED Indiators.

ya that looks really cool. I was actually thinking of getting one, they look really good. Right now i just wired it up to the factory horn and didnt worry about a shut off for it, but im thinking of getting the bigger compressor now and i was looking at getting a set of the switches that come in a superduty with a towing package. They look really good but im still not sure, there are a bunch of different spots ive been looking at. But seeing those pictures of the ohc i think i might be going to find my self one now lol. Thanks for the reply
