Custom Switch Panel

As you can probably tell, I have no experience with Fiberglassing but I would like to learn! I can do a lot of research on my own without asking nagging questions here but a lot of times it's good to get opinons from people with experience. Anyways, I have a 1992 dodge dakota and I have a need for a place to mount a few switches (10+ switches)and I cannot find a convient place to locate them (any suggestions).. But I decided on using the ashtray mount (I dont smoke anyways so I'll have to find a new place for my insurance card *SIGH*)Anyone have some suggestions on this? Thanks, -Jason

takes some pics of your cabin not all of use...especially me know what the Dakota looks like inside..Fiberglass Guru.

will do!

i got the dakota too and im putting mine in the ashtray so i can flip it out and flick a few switches

hehe awesome... what type of switches... Regular toggles? how many? Have you started the project yet?

.....overhead console!  Some weeks ago our shop fabricated an odd but stylish "Above-the-visor" console.  Yes, Ceiling / driver's side console, then visor attached to back to the console in the original location (almost).  This thin console  was used to integrate (flush mount) a stereo remote as well as a radar detector, and garage door opener all in one.  First time for us to fabricate a one sided console.  One of my fabricators admitted being a single-side-console virgin...LOL!!!

..overhead would be great but truck is due for T-tops in 6 weeks hehe...

well... came across a problem... or, a delay rather... It may be longer before i get the T-tops :-( ... I have a frame to box and I dont want the body structure to be weakened or anything so we can put the cab on the new frame without worry... As for the switch panel, a T-console would be pretty sweet... And so would the ashtray one... I'm trying to figure how many I can fit in the ash tray... My idea is to kinda box the top of it off and put the switches in.. does that make sense? I hope so...

LOL I wanted T Topps in my mazda Prob 10 or so yrs ago, and Believe me I'm not scared to dive in with my trusty air saw and get to it, my only problem was the top shop that does this everyday gave me 1 gurantee.... nomatter who the install was done by him or anyone else IT WAS GUARANTEED TO LEAK!!!!!!
