Hi Guyz
I wanted to add some switches to control;
Winch master power
Rear work Light
Arb Compressor
Front Spotlights
Map Lights
Fridge
CB GPS etc
I decided to install the daystar 4 rocker switch panel but I still wanted more switches - so on a recent SJC trip to the watagans I saw inside the trip leaders JK and noticed he had a nice commercial box installed above his mirror - that gave ma an idea - so (I'm guessing for a fraction of the cost)
I bought a second Daystar panel ($40 off Ebay USA including the switches fitted) and cut it down to fit the space above my mirror
Step 1 - Carefully measure the top panel and cut out a hole to install the daystar
Step 2 - cut down the daystar panel - as per pic
Step 3 - Test fit
Step 4 - Complete the wiring
Enjoy - Cheers Hunty

Hunty,

Nice job, wiring & fitting so neat. I like the camera work especially the review mirror.

Hi Hunno - LoL well I had to delete what was originally in the mirror (Me)- so what better pic to put in - "a submerged Hilux! at Fraser Island" - LoL
