Default Home made switch panels? Anybody make them thereselves?

Hello, I am looking for ideas on switch panels I don't really like and products on the market. Maybe I'm just not looking hard enough but I would like to keep them on my a pillar and thought of making a panel to clean it up a bit. Anyone else make there own? Please post and show me what you did, even if it's not on the pillar I'm still open to options.

Now I wish I didn't have those stupid power windows. That looks awesome. I made a box above my rearview mirror, unfortunately I do not have any pictures of it at the moment.

Looks good, I would need to get a new cover seeing as I have them drilled temporarily with temp switches unless I just rivet a nice finished piece of aluminum the finish it off

I've seen images of where folks have done this with OTRATTW.com switches. Advantage is you can get custom, laser-engraved switches. Looks sharp.

Now it appears, don't know why it didn't at first , but that is a very nice panel I would do it if I didn't have power windows could make it look almost factory
