Does anyone have a pic of the honda factory aux accessory switch panel installed? I would like to see where it goes before I buy one or "make other arrangements."

Thanks!

Yes there is an open area Honda calls the glove box you drill a few holes and the wire goes out the back. Down to the existing fuse panel under the hood and I think to the battery. You still have the closable compartment under it.

I didn't like the fact I had to reach to the other side of the dash to reach the switches or see the voltmeter or that there was only room for 4 switches. I figured I'd have to add something somewhere else for more switches anyway so I came up with my own solution that was easier to reach.


Just different ways to skin a cat.

I don't like the factory set up worth a hoot. But, I have zero skills in modifications. Hmmmmmmm.

Not as hard as you think, I can walk you through most of it. It's really the initial design that took most of my effort. PM me if you want.

Oh wow. I am afraid I will destroy the dashboard or worse if I go to messing with it. But I am already miffed at the "winch wait" so I don't relish another long wait on a part. I am surprised Honda is not more prepared with the accessories. They are losing money when folks go non-Honda for accessories.
