Switches above mirror
1 Attachment(s)
Has anyone tried putting the Contura rocker switches (aka daystar switches) directly above the mirror. I looked at doing the daystar panel mod....but thought this might look cool.

That's where my cb is mounted. I don't see why the switches wouldn't look good there too.

Well, ordered some custom-ish Daystar rocker switches. I'll be taking the piece of plastic off to see how much room is up there. I'll update with pics.....

CB is there as well, but I would definitely use that location for switches if it were available!

if you get something like the off road engineering custom switch panel, you can mount it just about anywhere...
http://project-jk.com/gallery2/main...._itemId=269844 To the left of the steering wheel just above the speaker would proably be the easiest place to install one of these... http://project-jk.com/gallery2/main...._itemId=272286 Or, you could install it just under the center console as shown. http://project-jk.com/gallery2/main...._itemId=272284 Just behind the cup holders might work well too... http://project-jk.com/gallery2/main...._itemId=272282 I have a Rock Hard Sport Cage and almost installed it here... http://project-jk.com/gallery2/main...._itemId=272280 Heck, I even thought about installing it under the e-brake lever... http://project-jk.com/gallery2/main...._itemId=272278 Being so small and light, you could easily install one on the plastic windshield header cover like this too... http://project-jk.com/gallery2/main...._itemId=272276 |
Wired HDH would be another mount it anywhere option. $$ but having 8 programable switches is nice.

There's some room back there, but I'm not sure there's enough depth for the switches. What I've seen done is get the lower daystar panel, and cut out the panel part (so you just have the box that the switches mount in), and then cut a hole for that above the mirror. If you're careful with the cutting, it can come out pretty sharp. Then you have the switches up there out of the way, and it looks damn good.
