      What style switches for my '68?

      I am putting together a switch panel for the '68, using a blank DSE VINTAGE AIR GEN II CONTROLLER MOUNT. Which of these 4 switches do you like the best? I won't be using the panels pictured (using my own), just the switches. I like the idea of the LED in the switch b/c it takes up less space but i think it might be too "euro" for my car.
      1) Toggle with 2 color LED in the tip. Red in Off, Green when On. Like the 4 switches on the right of the panel.

      2)Toggle with 1 Color LED in the tip. Nothing when Off, Red when On.

      3) Regular toggle w/ large LED mounted in switch panel.

      4) Regular toggle w/ small LED mounted in switch panel.

      While all of the switches will work, an understated look always seems more intelligent and sophisticated to me.

      None of the above. The choices from Vintage Air look much better!

      I say the LED in tip are the coolest of the above, but I would rather do rocker switches with a light for the on position. Little cleaner. If you want race car cockpit, then #1.

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      Yea, i started thinking about rocker switches. They are cleaner, and also would almost look "factory" since they blend in more. Something like this would actually work perfectly since i need a momentary switch for my 2-step.


      I do like how the toggles give the car a more mechanical feel though.
