We took the emergency brake shield off of a truck we found in a junk yard and put some toggle switches in it. We thought it would look cool. What do you think?

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 11-02-2003, 09:41 PM

Stock. Board member's I think very nice..

truckresq · 11-02-2003, 09:46 PM

l3rian_King_196 was your truck totaled? are you going to get it fixed?

72MARIO · 11-02-2003, 09:51 PM

If you tuck up the wires and make them look neat that emergency brake shield would look really good for the purpose it has.

My opnion. I don't mean to start anything. It would look Rad painted Gloss Black and all the wire wrapped up.

This is how they mount to the aluminum dash kits would you mount them to a thin piece of aluminum then put the original dash over it to make it look like the one above sorta stock instead of just put in from the outside in?

Here's my switch panel, same idea but made from scratch, mounts up to the heater control mounting bolts so completely reversible, switchs for electric fan, auxiliary lights etc. Thinking about replacing it with one that'l take my voltmeter and clock as well. I've always liked toggle switchs, just something satisfying about the way they work!

Didn't mean to sound nasty, you all just know how the even the FACTORY wiring can be.

RON WOODGEARD · 11-04-2003, 06:48 AM

This set up belongs to Thor50, That's the cleanest, nicest, I have seen. But he didn't think he was doing anything that great and didn't keep record of how he installed them. I haven't seen any of his post for a while here.. I'm undecided whether to attemp this or the No Limit set up. I really like this.

If interested, I can send you a e-mail he sent me about that set-up. He says how he went about it. I don't think he will mind. You can PM me with your regular e-mail.
