toggle switches

[Kurt Henzler]

i saw some really nice pics a while ago with some toggle switches mounted in the overhead for exta lights. they looked really nice and can not find the post. i want to put some up there to for driving lights and some extras and had some questions about where to tap in for power.

any PIC,s of where to mount light switch



I can help with wiring, make a few suggestions etc. I had a heck of a time wiring my lightbar, CB, Amp, etc... But it's all in and working the way I want. Even added a fuse box in the cab so I could split things up better. My next project is a 1500W Inverter so I can plug in 120V stuff



Feel free to give me a call 571-238-8056

The link Tom posted is my pic! Glad you like it. I got that rocker switch from an electronics surplus store some time back. I bought it because I like it (actually I bought a few of them just in case I need more later on). The dial and the square pushbutton came with my DSG idle controller. The LED I also bought at an electronic surplus store.



I get most of my electronic parts from (if I can't get it at the surplus store):
