Little blank panel beside radio, need one!!!

Post by Walt »

Hey everybody, I tried something on my little blank panel beside the radio (where the airbag switch usually goes), and now I need to get another panel, but I've called several dealerships and the parts guys think I'm stupid because "Sir, they don't make a blank panel that fits in that location, only an airbag switch, or a hatch switch for blazers".

Anyways, any ideas?

Thanks!

I'll keep my eyes open, if I make it to a salvage yard.

What about just grabbing a switch out of a Blazer? They are everywhere-

I use mine for the aux. fuel transfer pump, and front bar mounted fog lights.
I still have positions to add two more accessories in the future. Just think of it as a five position switch :mrgreen:

I was j/k with ya'. I grew up with vinyl so, I guess I am just used to it. :D

And after all the years I spent as a K-9 handler, I prefer anything other than fabric. :lol:

I cannot understand to this day how dog hair can get threaded into the weave of fabric and carpeting.

Anyway back to the topic of getting him a charcoal colored insert. I too, thought that was the only color that came with the crew cabs.
