Default Lets see your switch locations

Looking to add some bed lights and plan on add a light bar up front eventually on my 2013 supercrew. I would like to add a few switches or a nice switch bank. Has anyone got a pic of how they've mounted theirs.

I've got a 2010, I don't have the power adjustable pedals so I used the extra space on the instrument panel dimmer to mount my fog and driving light switches.

I like these switches -

Www.otrattw.com

- I'm going to get some ordered up and see where they'll fit properly. There's also a thread on here that I'm going to track down where switches get built into the space in front of the shifter, with a plexiglass type material. It ends up looking pretty sweet. I'll find and post it when I get to a computer.

Lots of ideas here:
https://www.f150forum.com/f38/off-ro...214613/index2/

Post 57 is what I just did. Three switches (front lights, bed lights, possibly a front camera or other future use) will fit. Discrete, and if you ever want to remove them the holes are covered by reinstalling the rubber tray. Very easy to reach there too. Parts Express, and I'm sure other sources, has the switches with amber indicator LEDs to match the factory heated seat, defroster, etc "On" indicators. I played around with installing the switches in a 1/4" piece of polycarbonate cut to fit the tray with a LED backlight light the area but it wasn't going work out real well as the switches cover most of the space. Easy enough to find by touch. Since the corners of the tray are curved, be careful not to put the holes too close to the sides.

I put mine here cause I don't use the sunglasses holder.... HOWEVER... Check this out! It's programmable and works off ur iPhone, I'd hide the box and never look at it again! This is so cool and plenty of outputs all fused, even with a basic knowledge of 12v systems u can use it for a endless amount of accessories...

That is cool. Not cheap but not out of reach either. I was looking at a way to modify one of my sunglass holders to house switches and only have them shown when i drop it down. But this has got my attention and ill have to think about it.
