Default Lets see your switch panels

Now I know out of all the trucks on here, some of you at least must have custom switch panels/banks in your cab. Lets see them.

I've got plans for my new truck and I'm gonna be installing a number of switches, but I'd prefer to not drill into the dash unless I had to.

Any ideas?

Looks good, but I don't have an overhead. And I don't think I want to go to the agro of pulling one outta a junkers and they tearing a hole in my headliner to get it to fit.

The little cubby hole under the radio is where I have the ones that control my rear lights, and rear speakers. Anything else is also going there if I ever add more lights. The point is you have to know they are there to use them. The one next to the ignition switch controls the driving lights when the high beams are on. Ever since I rewired it that way I haven't turned it off. I have switches on the overhead in a Cherokee.
