Yes. It seems like good quality. It doesn't get aggressive use on my part since the vehicle is not a DD, but so far, so good.Are you happy with the switch doctor quality?
My passenger window button on the master switch broke. Is it possible to change just that out? the used oem switches are still pricey so probably not worth it.
If I bought the oem gray switch could I switch my brown housing onto it? Hard to tell from the pics.
This was incredibly helpful.Yes,
Take the door panel off. Remove the screw that hold the grey housing for the door handle and slide it over the handle. Remove 2 crews that hold the arm rest in place and the GENTLY start popping the the door panel off. It helps if you have an upholstery tool for this but you can you your fingers and a large flat head screw driver. You will then lift the door panel up and over the door lock plunger. Once you do that, rich behind and unplug the electrical connections. At that point, removing the master switch will be easy. I would not try to do it without removing the panel, you will destroy it.
This looks great. So you used SEM coat. Did you prep with the SEM adhesive spray? U just taped the switches rather than removing them. It's a pain to take it all apart but I did do that once to clean the contacts in the switch. I have my brown switch coming now and need to do the same.I also bought the switchdoctor one in brown and then SEM painted it, and then used Testor silver hobby paint to get the raised letters in silver. Not perfect on the lettering but a fairly fun / easy project and nice to have new fully functioning switch panel. Bottom one is the new panel obviously - a slight bit of overspray got past the tape job on one of the switches making it look a little usedView attachment 3242988
Right. It’s a PIA.You can remove them, but trying to get all of the tiny springs and white plastic shafts to be in the correct spot as you reassemble it....
One additional question, do you happen to know the exact SEM paint color code?IIRC, I did not use anything other than the SEM paint. It has held just fine. I think I used 2-3 light coats of the SEM. It didn't look like there was a way to remove the switches from what I recall, thus I taped them. Maybe I just didn't study it hard enough to figure it out, but I also didn't want to break the switches on a brand new panel.
Right. It’s a PIA.

I think I ordered it from Cruiser Corps.
Its SEM Color Coat - 15303 - Graphite.Right. It’s a PIA.
