I need to install 3 ARB switches. I want to put them where the factory rear wiper and defrost switches are.
Need help finding switch panel sources. I don't want to buy other switches, I'm definitely using the ARB switches.
Who sells these panel inserts? Sure appreciate the help, J
 

Bunch of options on his website
 
Thanks. Nice stuff

I can understand not wanting to use different switches than the ones from ARB, but in my experience- the ARB switches kind of sucked and could sometimes get stuck and not pop back out. Or the lighting inside them wouldn’t stay on.
I eventually changed back the switches to original Toyota defrost switches (push button) — and they were superior.

I used the original for years, never had an issue. The new switches look like a jeep so I'm reusing my old set, they are
almost 30 yrs old. They have a different original markings. I don't want to rewire them to work either
 
I made my own mounting plate for the spot where the stock radio goes because none of these cool aftermarket options existed when I did it. I would have used CruiserTrash's bezel or brackets and have bought them, but have yet to rewire/move the switches to reclaim the radio spot for something else, like a pop-out LCD screen?

I like the ARB switches, they're quality and no need to substitute - I have them for rear locker and compressor. I think they're just Carling switches, though.

They are just Carling switches. I have the old covers from way back and I like the way they look. I got my dash apart today and
glued the old broken bezel piece. I am undecided on replacing the 3 rear hatch switches with these or covering the plastic
bin over. The bin is useless, the ashtray is not, it's got a multitude of bits and screws/bolts/nuts tiny crap.
I'll look on amazon and see if I can get a template piece.
 
So fitted 6 across. Over the cubby. Don’t like them way over there. This horrible little mutation on the left is about to get revamped. SS switch is driving lights, rocker is Glow Screen, far right is Webasto. So I think this will get cut and 6 switches will go here. 3 ARB, 1 Glow, 2 Driving lights all will be carling style rockers. Rheostat will be removed and just tucked in the back. It lives on max output. Webasto will relocate to bottom RH beside ashtray so I can reach it while in bed on the cot in the back on those cold mornings.
