  • Need ideas for a switch box

    Thought Id give it a try here and see if any of you can come up with something clever for me to make a switch box out of for my hydraulic system. Ive done all different kinds in the past, but now I have a hearse and want it to kind of go with the theme, Has to be something big enough to fit 2 toggle type switches, Not sure if you all are familar with these, but heres a pic of your basic 10 switch box, but Im only running 2 switches, and heres a skull one Ive seen also, and Ive been lookin online for some sort of 'mini' casket I could put them in something like in the pic. any suggestions of anything cool or different would be apprectiated, Thanks

    I'm a fan of this myself, but not for my car



    I've actually got a fairly nice switchbox made by xantech that I got from an exfriend's exgirlfriend. Not sure what I'll do with it yet though. It's got four switches and a fuse for each switch.

    Also http://www.amazon.com/APC-EPW9-Emerg.../dp/B0001VNNJ8 seriously? 600 for a fucking button?

      This is one of my favorite ones. Little Shop of Horrors makes these. I'm not sure if they actually sell them though. It seems like if you have your ride done by them (and they like you, lol) they put one in.



      Mine switches are just flushed into the under side of the dash, so you can't see them. I'm not a big fan of having something sliding all over, when I'm trying to drive.

      And since I have air, I put my gauges inside the eyes on the skull on my dash. (see my avatar)


      Here's one that a guy made a model that looked just like his ride.

          Yeah I am more of a fan of the dash mount, thats how my other car is now, and I know what your saying with shit sliding around, first car I did with a "box" hit a turn damn thing slid of the seat hittin the swithes while I turned, So I was gonna dash mount the hearse, just thought if I could do somthing creative would look cool displayed on the front seat at shows.

            Yep, all the ones we do for show cars, have the ones under the dash for normal driving and a box that plugs in just for shows.

            I like the model replicas.

            I once build one for a customer, with tinny tiny little switches in a Hot wheels car for them. And I've done lots of game controllers (even Atari, lol), before you could buy them.

            I thought this one was cool too.

                Get a medical grade skull and not some cheap Halloween one. The top will come off and mount the switches inside so they can not be seen.
