Definitely interested in a gray one if you are still doing these. I'm thinking I would want a blank one and if not too hard to cut/drill I'll modify as needed. LMK what you think. Thanks!

The oak/tan consoles get painted with Rust-Oleum Bronze. I have tried brown color filaments and nothing comes close.

I had someone ask about that recently. I don't have a design, but I can design one for you if you want to send me your Switch Pro. I will send it back with your console.
My truck is currently in the shop getting an electrical system refresh and they'll be installing the SwitchPros. So they have the panel. But they're not mounting it in the cabin, just running the wiring through the firewall and leaving it loose until I decide where I want to mount the panel. I'll check in with the techs and see if they're done testing the system, and then I should be able to have them ship you the panel so you can design how to incorporate it into your overhead console.
Assuming I can get the panel shipped out to you by the end of the week, what rough timeline would you anticipate to get the console designed and printed?
Thanks. I really think your design is the best option for me, and I think it will be a popular option for those who are looking to install a switch pros like me in their 80.

Id say it will probably take 2-3 evenings after work to get a good design. We will take measurements, design one, and print it. Then we will probably need to make small changes and reprint it 2 or 3 times to get it perfect.
Let me know when you are ready to ship it.
Thanks!

Anyone else think this is the same thing as the "aux beam"?

Did you open the PDF file or just look at the main page pics? The panel is pretty much surface mount if you want or you can use their bracket that you can see the corner of in the main picture. Would you be interested in borrowing this panel to design a file/print to mount it? If not I may just order one that's blank and cut my own opening...which would actually just consist of drilling 4 small mounting holes for the machine screws to pass through and a bigger one for the wire and connector to pass through.

Wow this looks great! Anyone have experience with how well the pitch/roll gauge works? Does it dim at night? It would be awesome if there was one that also included outdoor temp.

Never tried it with a 91 model. Send me a picture of your current console.
