Place To Mount Aux Switches??

I'm looking for a place to mount some aux switches. Ex. Onboard air power on and off, fog lights, driving lights, preluber. Would like to use a switch and a small light above or below it for an on indicator. I saw somewhere on net that somebody was making a cover plate to go over the storage compartment in the dash, the small rectangle one about 4" sq.. Any other ideas. Also has anybody used the Fuse box sold by Genos garage. You can get it with 4 hots and 3 ignition hots.

I've got the exact one. I wish I had one w/ all hot though. Most accessories need to be switched anyways.

For really cool engraved switch panels, go to www.12voltguy.com . He doesn't have anything that is Ram specific but he has all kinds of pre-made panels and he can custom make anything you want.....Check him out!

okie,

I put lighted switches from Pep Boys in the overhead console. It's real easy to see if the accessory is on or not.

Do you smoke, take out ash tray and put a piece of stainless steel in there and put the switches there, thats where mine are going, plenty of room to run wires too.
