I’m doing a new aluminum dash to fit the Dakota Digital VHX-1100 and am wanting to have a more modern switch set up ie ignition switch,headlight,wipers, and a new heater control unit. Saw some nice stuff in Restomodair but not sure if they sell other stuff. Recommendations and pic would be awesome. Thank you

Check out Rocker switch Pro's and custom design all your own toggle switches. I've used these on 3 builds thus far and extremely happy

153997That’s a nice set up. After reading my post I saw it wasn’t too clear what I wanted. I want to retain stock ignition switch,headlamp switch and wiper switch but want a billet knob/bezels that don’t look like they are from the 60’s. Here is a pic of unfinished dash

Great choice Keith, looks perfect ... I am using DD HDX gauges on both my FJ40 Landcruisers coming up

Cheers

sweet! I'm working on a little project using those types of switches. I'll probably be hitting you guys up for some of the covers with the night time illumination features... wish I knew Bout you guys earlier... I ordered my switches off ebay... however they have dual LEDs so at least they're ready for the cover swap.
