| The sheet contains
4 parts, and 15 button covers. The top part is your finished dash overlay
-- be careful with it as it will be visible as your finished product.
The next arch
is the exact same size and shape, and indicates the light centers. You
can use this for test fitting, practice cutting, and drilling holes (if
you're going to put your lights right into your dash). The three circles
are 7/16", 1/2" and 9/16". The inner circle is 7/16"
-- that's the bounding box for the icons. The 1/2" is the recommended
hole size for when you drill out the holes for your lights. The outer
circle, the 9/16" one is the actual center-to-center spacing of the
holes. Four holes in the middle are NOT used. From left to right there
are 22 holes used, 4 unused, and then 15 used (41 total holes indicated).
And the bottom
two parts represent the size and shape of the blocks for the LED mounts
that I'd recommend making. Here are some photos of mine:
The two blocks
cost me around $200 to have made at my local acrylics shop (or about,
I haven't gotten the final price yet). They told me that if we got 10
orders, they'll be about $120 each, and if we got 100 orders, they'll
be about $60 each. If you're interested in purchasing these, let me know.
I'll count up the orders and if we get enough I'll put them in.

I used the switches sold by Ken
Essler at NAERC. He charges $44 each! (x9 switches). If I find his
source I'll let you know. I'm going to recruit Steve at Remmington
Coachcraft again to see if I can find matching switches. Until then,
you'll have to order from Ken.
