I test drove a Raptor today and they have the built in stock aux switches overhead. Might can order that unit.

Thanks for all your input guys but I'm not a fan of
the overhead console switches, I have thought about the center console however.
inhave no idea how to find it easily, but there is a post in here somewhere where a guy put 1 or 2 smaller switches just below where you put your red circle. He mounted it/them on that flat area that faces upward. There must be enough clearance behind there since he did it. It might be worth checking out.

Whoever imported my F150 and fitted it with EU standard rear fog light put the switch for that in the area you've circled so yes there is room, I don't remember how much though. I've also added two additional switches in the area Kingofwylietx described. The lower part of the dash (which holds the light switch and all that) is very easy to pull down and you can see for yourself what you have to work with in there.

I just measured how much space was needed and centered it on the area shown. Then I pulled down to open it for easier access and used my dremel to cut the holes. I think I drilled separate holes for each switch. Also, I think some of it might be 'double walled' for a lack of better terminology.

Minton over on the other thread put the older F250 upfitter switches and relay box there instead of doing the current Raptor overhead console switches.

There seem to be good deals on the older kits on ebay
2005-2007 F250 Kit - Switches and relay box: $139 with free shipping: https://www.ebay.com/itm/05-07-F250-...k/312087423549

2009 - 2010 F250 Kit - https://www.ebay.com/itm/2009-2010-S...t/170855915004

2011 - 2016 F250 Kit - Switches and relay box: $172: https://www.ebay.com/p/11-Thru-16-Su...it/15013353164
