Custom switch panel in place of HVAC controls *PICS*

Sup all, just thought i'd post a pic of the new switch panel I made to go in place of my HVAC controls since I deleted my AC and such. As you can see the switch panel contains 8 switchs w/ 7 LED lights. From left to right here is what they will be assigned to do:

Rocker w/ cover = Ignition w/ green LED for when the switch is on
Push button starter
Electric Water Pump switch w/ green LED for when the switch is on
Fan control switch (on-off-on) 1 amber light = low speed 2 amber light = high speed
Line Lock switch w/ red LED for when it is on
Rocker w/ cover = nitrous arm w/ blue LED when switch is on
Momentary red push button = nitrous purge
Bottle heater w/ red LED when bottle is being heated.

and here she is:



Not bad for my first shot at making a panel, i could have did alittle better job on the light and switch placement but its not that big a deal. Fits awesome, no gaps with the plastic bezel that goes over the radio/hvac area. I made it out of 16 gauge steel that I got from lowes and used a bansaw to cut her out after i traced the actual hvac control unit on the steel.

The ones on the center console are all old, not going to be used anymore. The ones on the switch panel are all that will be in use.
