Aux switch panel for sure!
if you need a Lariat to test fit, let me know! I’d be happy to Guinea pig some test versions
(I’d bet they’re EXACTLY the same fit…)

For those with 3D printers would you offer the STL for self printing?

I’m leaning toward selling the finished printed parts rather than the STL, at least initially.

The main reason is that I’m putting a fair bit into the scan data, fitment testing and design work, so once the final file is out there it would be very easy for it to get copied and resold.

If there’s enough demand from people who already own printers, I may look at a licensed STL option later, but I’d want to get the physical versions dialed in first.

Something like the Kicker/Bass control.
I'm thinking of adding a RedARC TBC controller. That place may be ideal for the control knob, IF it is deep enough.

I like #5 or #8 - I have a key for my Diamondback cover that I currently keep in the console, but I've been trying to think of a way to stick it in that spot already. This would be perfect.

What about garage door opener button? I bought some cheap remotes from Amazon that I was thinking about mounting the circuit board to a 3D printed part.
Currently I'm using voice-activated thru Google using a garage door opener app on my phone

How about a shot glass. We can put the bottle in that other wasted space above the glove box.

Now we’re getting somewhere 😂 Driver-side shot glass holder, passenger shelf for the bottle, and the AUX switches can run the bar lights. Ford really did leave us a full mobile pub and just forgot to finish it.

And don't forget the bottle opening on the tailgate.

GREAT idea !


Voted for the volt meter, OR I would take a plain panel & put my own meter in it.

I think aux switch is the most logical for that location. I could also see a toll pass holder being useful for people who live in areas where toll roads are a thing.
