Switches? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I already have footwell lighting. Currently the lights are in the headlight fuse. So they will turn on automatically with my headlights at night. I have a few more lighting kits on the way. I'm wondering if there are any places to put toggle switches in the car? I don't want to cut holes anywhere.

Without cutting holes? No. But I put my switches in the side panels of the center console.

Ah. Thanks. I think my kit has an on and off switch on the remote. Its optional and I would rather have hard wired switches. Thanks.

I use this for my lights. You do have to drill a small hole in the cup holder to run the wires but you can cover it up with something down the road if you remove the swtiches

This, hands down

I bought it mine with 5 switches like the above picture. Each switch gets a custom label. They did an awesome job on mine. Fits perfectly and gives the car a nice little interior touch.

My switch isnt drilled. It's hidden under the dash within reach and held into place by the squares beneath the dash so yes it's possible

If you're rather handy you can make something to drill into for the switches. Planning on making something that goes in the little area near the bottom of the door. Its going to be a little bit of a pain to fish the wires through the door but it will be worth it not to lose a cupholder, center console space, or drill a hole.

The console side panel, kick panel, and carpet retainer (interior sill cover) are all great places to drill since replacing them is not expensive and routing wires to them is easy.

That looks really nice. Might have to scrape the $120 for it sometime.
