I will probably do some basic colors, but I honestly feel I should leave that to the end user as there are so any things people would do to match their interior. I have a few projects in the shop that will get the switches and they are all separate color ideas for the switches.

How does the aluminum attach to the rocker switch? Set screw?

It snaps on. No set screws. No plastic inserts. Its really tricky. I had to go through several machinist to get that part of the equation figured out.

We should be ready to ship within 30 -45 days. We will start a pre sale on our website in the next week or so to get people in line for the switches as we are able to ship them out. I'm trying to decide what ratio for the differents witch bases to order. I think most will use them for power window switches.

Rodger I'm pretty sure Ford sells their GT switches as momentary, positive on/off, and up(hi)/center(off)/down(low) which could either be used for hi/low beam or headlight and/or running lights. Hope that makes sense.

The Ford Gt switches are not used for a power window application. So they have no momentary switch design. They are used for everything else. Plus retail on most of the GT switches are well over 100 bucks each and then they take some expensive pigtails to get them hooked up properly.

Here are the switches in the Ford GT. The switch by the hand in the picture says FOG.



The switch on the far left says lights.
.

The other big advantage with these switches is the fact that the switch top is aluminum so we can paint coat or anodize the rocker how ever you like. The switch rock in the Ford GT switch is plastic and not removable.

These switches will be able to do all of the above and do the power windows and be much easier to install in our universal applications.

Thanks
