I have to have the amp switches due to the tablet mounted in the dash. If i turn off the tablet i get a slight electrical nosie in my speakers.

You could mount something like this...

RaceGrade Motorsport Keypad

There was another place that made nice rocker switch covers for that style switch, but I forget the website

Here is my F650 dash. I currently have two switches installed for the WVO system but plan on adding reverse lights, high idle and extra driving lights. Plan on having all the switches auto/off/on giving me the ability to turn reverse lights on independently when doing trailer hookups or having the driving lights be controlled when the high beams are actuated.

I love my 650 Dash. Everyone that gets in the truck comments on the "command" center.

Agreed, Jesser has a great setup.

I don't need anymore gauges so I wonder if I could put another set of switches on the lower part of the manual setup.

Riff Raff is a little too steep for me so I am going to check into the DIY route. Wiring is not my strong suite though.

I went the do it yourself rout on my F250 but that was when this mod was in its infancy.

I have a dual gauge/6 switch from Riff Raff that has just been sitting in the barn for a few years now. Been contemplating putting it into the Excursion but it will probably stay in the box.

I went the DIY route too. I like the machined bezels included in the RR product, they angle the gauge towards the drivers eye for better viewing.

The price, less than $80 for the physical dash, was great. I spent ~ $90 on the switches. The wiring was a nightmare, but one I made for myself.

Twitch, There is room for 5 or 6 of those rockers in the lower face of the manual dash. Scheduling free time to get mine done doesn't seem to be my strong suite.

Jesser, great looking job on yours, color matching really makes it! What is the little gizmo under the CB?

That little gizmo is a small 80 watt kicker for the CB. When we are out in the woods I'm not impaired due to the terrain.

Just got mine on Thursday from Autonation - White Bear Lake. Should be going in by the end of the day. Holes are already drilled for the gauges and it is primed for paint. Not sure what is taking some of you so long...




Oh, and I am just not a switch-on-the dash guy. Mine are going in/on the center console if I ever need any. That is why I didn't bother with any except the slot to the left that the Hydra will be attached to and cover.
