Probably sections of color since there is only four available. Or maybe all the same color since the labels will be lit.

are you going to have a switch for the compressor, or will it be in a separate space? Looks great btw.

The switch labeled air compressor is in the panel. However, I am going to rename it 'trunk monkey, since throwing the switch makes the truck rumble while the oba is pressurizing.

Hahahaha... Trunk Monkey, ... i love it! The visions that has provided are hilarious! lol. I just picture a Crazy Spider Monkey in your trunk, bouncing around, then activating your Locker for you knowing it wont get a treat otherwise! hehe. BTW.... what do you plan on feeding this Trunk Monkey, RB? lol.

Sorry RB, I won't do any more, lol. Just love those commercials... And hey, a Raccoon might be safer for the driver.... I mean, they can't rip off limbs like a Chimp and yet, they do often carry rabies??? lol. Nahhh, .... Raccoons are VERY destructive.... and I have a 4Runner, so he might rip my ear off during the drive... I'll stick with the monkey lol.

revised, now with trunk monkey switch(had to be abbreviated, I'd like to run symbols instead of lettering, but space is tight.)

I could go with standard toggle switches.

Trunk monkey is a lot of letters.

Thanks dude, are they push button? The others I have are rockers and they are 7/8" diameter. When they are in the dash they aren't as big as you'd expect. I like the push button idea.

yeah. push-on, push-off. four connectors in the back, 2 for the switch, 2 for the led. that means you can wire all the switches to glow with the dimmer circuit

there are some others that i like (ss "ring" glow), but they're bigger than your rockers
