Cup Holder Switch Panel

I've been looking for a good place for more switches since I've used the two extra slots in the dash and ran across a custom one made for a mustang. In the 8 this would be so stealthy and sweet.

I'll be the first on the list to order it if someone goes to the trouble of making them. lol

Here's my solution that keeps the cupholders and is still stealth. There's not a lot of room to work with so it's a bit tricky to locate the switches. Probably no more than the two big toggles will fit, but if it can be done with a push button, they are quite small.
Along the left side:
top button = gauge light dimmer
middle toggle = gauges on/off
bottom button = subwoofer on/off
Along the right side:
IR remote receiver for DVD movie player
(hole for another push button)
toggle =AV/NIR night vision camera on/off
(hole for another push button)

I considered that very thing HiFlite, but the misses "Alias the Boss" has an aversion to me drilling any holes in her baby.

My switches are for power to 2 gauges that have external controllers, w/m solenoid, w/m controller and one to grow on since I was busy drilling holes.
