| Gaugeplates.com Switch Overview
When ordering a panel with switches it is extremely important to tell us what type of switch you want. We can't build your panel without this information.
We can do any custom configuration of switches and gauges. Our panels are designed to use the small profile round rocker switches or toggle switches you see in the photos below. All switches are $6.50 each and that includes the laser engraving of the label of your choice. We switched to the smaller profile round switches in early 2009 so we could offer more switches per panel.
These switches are available with or without an LED indicator light in red, amber or green.
When placing your order please specify the following:
switch style: rocker or toggle
switch type: regular, momentary, double momentary
LED on switch: none, red, amber, or green
If you run out of room in the switch labels field please use the notes field on the paypal payment.
Backlighting: If you are ordering backlit switch labels ($6.50 per location) please specify your desired color: Red, Blue, White, Amber, Green
Other LED: We can also place an LED above the switch if desired, this is also $6.50 per location (red, amber ,green)
We no longer offer the covered switches or large marine style rocker switches.
We can build the panel around any other switch of your choosing, however you MUST send the switches to us for fitment. We have been burned too many times by people providing wrong measurements for their switches.
