Rocker Switch Block-outs
« on: February 25, 2022, 12:17:42 PM »
Hello all,

Last night I started taking out some of the unused Dash Switches in My D3.

I am, of course left with holes in the dash panel.  I sure would like to get some of those block-outs, that I could put in the holes and make it look nicer.  The hole are 1 1/8 inches by 3/4 inch.

I checking with Mouser Electronics and got no love.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Seb

Check a school bus parts supplier. Some of those early switch sizes were common on 
school buses too.

I'm planning to change all of my switches. If I do, I will send you my blanks. I have 4.

I want to install toggles.

Hello eprelot,

I really appreciate the offer.  I needed light 10 of them, so I just cut a piece of plastic and glued it to the back of the holes.  It keeps the dirt out and looks pretty good too.
