Nice Rocker Switches

Laser Blue has very nice rocker switches that I'm hoping will fit in the Fit. They are illuminated when turned on, and they are available for different purposes. I just ordered two: Power and LED Bar.

Amazon.com: laser blue switches: CDs & Vinyl

I finally found the switches I was hiding from myself. :-/ the dimensions are 1.437 tall x .820 wide if you have an accurate way to measure the hole. Basically 1-7/16 x 13/16"

Good. Those are the measurements I got. My switches should be here by the end of the week.

Do these fit in the openings to the left of the steering wheel?

I gave up on the rectangular switches and drilled 1/2" holes in two blanks covering the openings. I found the perfect switches for those spots. Now I'm trying to think of a use for the third slot.

Tomorrow I'll post details about how I installed the switches. Today I posted a how-to for adding a fuse plane under e dash.

Cool keep me posted. Just ordered the parts for my LED chassis underglow kit. Gonna need a nice switch, or worst case connect the led controller to an ignition controlled bus and not an always on to prevent draining the battery.
