Brushed Aluminium with a coat of satin urethane spar varnish. Same as the dashboard.
I may do a band with a black and white checker pattern at the switches, that also creates boxes for labeling. Not at first, though. For now, it's just going to go together as is.
ah of course same as dash, forgot about that one :-)I may do a band with a black and white checker pattern at the switches, that also creates boxes for labeling. Not at first, though. For now, it's just going to go together as is.
what you also can do if not engrave that alu plate under every switch, is something like this? could also be handy, you can also get such in color for say important things, maybe something you can use? just thinking out loud.
colored like this example
I just came across those here
not that I know that site so can be? its just a example you ca get them in many sizes I just saw.

I added the starter button and some small scratches to the dash and then I added the master disconnect and a big, f
king gouge to the switch panel. The signal I'm getting from my back is knocking refinishing those parts way down the priority list.
In all honesty, I botched the sequencing of the work on the switch panel. I should have countersunk the aluminum for the bolt head recesses first, and THEN made the hole for the key post. Doing it the other way around distorted the center hole.

Where did you mount it/them?
We installed one at the right side base of the windscreen.
Either one will shut everything off.
I prefer that to a pull string set-up.
Yes, I've seen that done, successfully, dozens of times but at the end of the day, it's a life-safety component.
Might as well do it the best way I know.

Even if you're only using it as a road car, and depending on how you wired your circuits, you may be better off relocating the master to the exterior.
Especially if your ignition key still turns off everything it did originally.
That way, you can power up, and get the lights operational before you get in, and you still have a means of turning all functions off from inside.

Yep, that would be a better idea, but , it’s all done now so it’ll have to go on the to do list for Christopher! Especially if your ignition key still turns off everything it did originally.

Don’t know if this link will work, short video from a small sprint circuit called Curburough, very old mid nineties.
