This is called avoiding sanding and painting, which is what I should be doing.
It's been plumbing fest around here the last couple weeks. Redid the whole shop, because the leaky hw tank meant splicing to 30 year old poly B and I didn't much feel like that...hence, plumbing fest.
so I'm just pissing around with something fun for a bit.
Anyways, before... (Like 2 years ago before, forgot to take a pic this morning lol )
And now.
The 4wd switch was the only one that worked, and the ashtray and that stupid mailslot junk holder were just a waste of space.
I used a piece of what I think is nylon, not sure how well it'll hold that paint over time, but I didn't have any black starboard. Plus this was kindof a test to see how it worked. If it was a total failure I wouldn't be crying over a $50 piece of plastic.
If the paint hangs in there, it might actually be better beige...
Anyways, it's not too bad. Would be cleaner with starboard or even aluminum, but it's better than the busy mess of crap there before.
Lots of room for gauges and actual useful switches if I decide to add them, but that s*** gets too overlandy in a hurry.
