OK have been trying the search to no luck finding anything. So where is everyone putting there switches and what switches are you using for lighting and such? Getting ready to finish the roof rack as soon as the snow melts for like the 5th time this year ( dam lying rodent in Pennsylvania ). Got everything pulled together to do the job just not the switches and location yet. Could you guys let me know and maybe some pics?

Scar what size switches are those. I like the way those look there.

When you were in there was it possible to put more of the in those rows?

Just a standard rocker(O'Reilly Automotive $4). There is not a lot of room on the dash. Maybe could have added 1 more next to the ones I have.
The bezel around the cluster is just clipped on. Lower the steering wheel and pull the bottom out. Then you can see what you are dealing with behind it. On the switch to the right of my steering wheel (ESP OFF) I mounted it a little close to the outside and had to trim some plastic behind the bezel to get it to fit. On the left is my Halo switch. It is lighted and a little bright when on at night.
The storage box on the left (my rack lights), just open it and pull up to remove it. It is plastic hinge clipped at the bottom. I could have put 2 more rockers in there with no problems. I chose that location so they would not be bumped by accident. The Off road light laws are strictly enforced in my area, with huge fines if you have them "on" while on the road.
So far I have been lucky and have not gotten sited for not having covers on them.

3 in the change pockets
1 just to the left of the factory switch bank

I made a switch panel to replace the sunglass holder above the stereo. For the switches I went with the Carling LED switches and custom rockers from https://www.otrattw.net/.

That has been on my drawing board for a year. I've had the dash out a few times looking at it. My plan is to mount four switches and two or three 12V sockets.
