Those with a 4x4...?

Could one of you guys do me a favor and measure the plate with the 4x4 switch for me? I need to see how much space is there between the other two switches (Defrost/ParkAssist off) and left side of the plate. I'm thinking about mounting a gauge in there and don't have a 4x4 so if someone could get that for me that would be awesome!! Thanks guys/gals!!

The 4x4 switch its self looks to be about 1.25'' in diamiter. .50" from the right side of the 4x4 switch to the left sides of the defrost/parkassist switches. The panel that my 4x4 and defrost/parkassist switches are mounted in is 3.50 inches tall and 4.25 inches wide. Hope that was what you were lookin for.

Im not exactly sure whats going on behind the panel, but it looks like you should be able to fit the 2-1/16" gauge on the face of it. Its gona be pretty tight though, hope the bezel around the guage is not much bigger than 2-1/16".

hmm... thats right. I'll stop by the stealership next time I'm out there and see how much the panel costs. If its cheap I'll go for it, if not I'll have to go to the junk yard another day. Thanks for all your help!!
