I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get a switch panel for a 92 camry. I am a firefighter, and have a couple toggle switches for my emergency lights. I would really like to make it look stock in one of the factory "holes" because I'm going in for inspection soon.

I wish I could expain what I'm looking for a little better. I hope some one knows what I'm talking about.

Thanks

Matt

Head to the auto wreckers and find some old Toyota vehicles. Most of these factory switches and knock out panels were all the same size. A simple fog light switch would work fine for this application as long as the switch is energizing a relay to operate your emergency lights. You do not want to run a whole pile of current through these switches or you will find yourself in need of the services you offer to others.

Top Secret, I can tell you but then my wife will kill me.

Thanks Rob

What I ended up by doing is taking out the knockout and drilling a couple holes in it. Then I just put a couple rat shack toggle switches in it.

*reiterates rob's warning*

you can burn up a switch, definately if you have all sorts of equipment that that switch turns on... the application isn't that hard to install a relay. There's a section on relays somewhere on this site... the switch should turn on the relay, which in turn would close the circuit for those lights of yours.
