[QUOTE="Turd Ferguson, post: 464592, member: 24527"] Also managed to get the new gauges and switch panel mounted in the console. There used to be 4 switches, I added a fifth which will come in handy for something. Deck lights, maybe. All of the switches are SPST, except the NAV light switch, which will be a DPDT (still waiting for this switch to arrive). The panel is a modular system made by Blue Sea Systems. I purchased two end pieces and 3 center pieces. They snap together to make one panel. It was kind of a tight fit, and if you look close you can see that my original layout was off a bit. There’s a few small scratch lines from my intial layout which aren’t a big deal but if you look close they’re noticeable. Whatever, I’m pleased with how it looks. The switches are all Blue Sea Contura III switches. They fit beautifully in the panel and all together it’s a very clean looking system. Glad I went with this route. Switches will be probably be as follows: NAV Lights Bilge Livewell Gauge Lights Deck Lights (Possibly) I also just received another Blue Sea Panel that consists of a 12V Accessory outlet and a dual USB outlet. That’s going to go on the other side of the console from the switches. It’ll be very convenient to have these extra outlets. I’ll post a picture when I can of the new panel.
