Rocker switch panel ideas

[Marky Dissod]

LMC sells, or at least used to sell, full width shelves that attach through the sun visor mounting holes. They have holes to remount the visors to them.

have to check if it works with the ceiling console that has my rear air controls. Photo doesn't show that.

Looks like LMC no longer sells 'em, or at least they're out of stock for now.
Why is black $135, but tan is $130?
ANYWAY
Looks like VDP USED TO make them, cannot find them available anywhere.
Part number looks like VDP SH1115?

Might want to read this review:

According to the reviewer, the pic is of the one HE made hisself.

Oh sweet that guy in reviews made his own. Maybe I could just do that.

You of all people would likely do a far better job
than a company that appears to no longer make it, and got a dismal review of it back when they did.

EDIT:
To be clear, their idea is quite sound.
Attach shelf using GM OE visor attachment points.
Attach visors to shelf.

Their execution is what's dismal, to be improved upon by, say, you.

I wouldn't want anything up there while overlanding.

Where'd you see the example of dismal execution? I missed that.

The questionable detail I saw was that the reviewer's home built job didn't appear to have a lip, at the rear, to keep stuff from sliding off into your lap.

I don't say he was lying, but the reviewer reminded me of many poorly thought out reviews on Amazon.

I've not seen the firm's dismal execution, but the fact that this firm no longer appears to make the product in question is also telling.
If we are forced to execute instead of buying an out-of-production part, that gives US options.

Man, I think you jump to too many conclusions, too easily.

Very strong suspicion, not quite a conclusion.
I leave the conclusion - the decision to make one - to each of us.

Personally, gonna make my templates out of cardboard, gonna make one for the driver and one for the passenger.

If you don't have a sun roof, there is a surprising amount of room up there. Also, the older roof consoles that ran from the windscreen to the center ceiling light still have provisions in our ceilings. So you could snag one of those, too.

Great ideas!
