Auxiliary Switches

Hi all,

I want to fit some auxiliary switches to my D3 they will control a discrete lightbar and some other lighting.

I have seen the SPod control panels and that looks good to me but it well over priced.

I’ve also looked at something similar to what I’m used in emergency vehicles which is similar and cheaper

Does anyone have anything like this fitted.

What are they like to fit and where did you fit the switches

Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Their website says it's a DIN sized panel ... could you not cut a DIN blanking plate to suit your needs?

Looks like ver B is the max number of standard switches on a DIN panel - suppose you could get smaller switches or use double pole type where center is off and up is one thing and down is another thing

As far as I can see it’s for smokers pack I have two auxiliary power points on mine, but suspect that it’s all the same behind.
I have an idea for a top of dash ‘shelve’ and is being looked at at present, if it’s possible will have place for switches and two way radio mount
I have four switches mounted overhead in front interior light cluster.
