So I am getting ready to mount my roof mounted LED light bar (details in a few weeks, waiting on laser cut mounts). And I came to the conclusion id like a custom switch panel.
Ive recently made a Vacuum Forming table and have been messing with it, this is what ive come up with so far.

I removed the garage door opener panel, removed the actual module. cut out a rectangle, inserted and molded the switch holders.

The end product is basically a shell. I use the original panel with only the rectangular hole cut in for switch clearance. Then the new molding panel basically just clips on the original panel. The last picture is before i installed the original panel, it fits much better now.
I have a little more smoothing out to do, but im happy with the product so far.

Very nice work. Thanks for sharing.
 












I wonder if there is any market for these? They could be very affordable.
