Who was it that did the cubby hole guage's and relocated thier a/c switch's

I know I seen this somewhere. Pretty sure it was on this site.

I did my gauge's today and was going to move the switch's, but they wouldn't bolt up to the new location. How did you do that mysterious stranger.

I did it in mine but I moved my 4wd **** and heated seat switches. I took the factory bezel, and the cover at the base of the center of the dash out, cut out the center of the lower dash trim and used fibreglass to mold in the switch bezel. This also required extending the wiring harnesses for the switches. I haven't fully finished the face yet, but I will post some picks of the semi-finished panel in my gallery tomorrow. Hope that helps, Marc.

I believe it was Medicshawn... He moved his Heater and temp contorls down, The heated seat switches to the side and the 4X4 selector to the Lighter position..

I switched mine about a year after they were installed. I saw a pic of them switched and decided one Saturday I had to do it. Certainly easier to do it on the initial install, but I managed. I do like it much better, I can see the gauges much easier now.

I made a template using the A/C controls and then used a dremmel tool to cut out the lower area. I was able to use the bottom holes for the cubby insert for the screws. I use a washer on the top cubby insert screws they are on the outside of the A/C control and the washers hold it in place very tight.
