turbogrill Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 I bought a QuickCar dashpanel for about $100 or so, expensive for set of switches but looks nice. For the price I figured it would be great quality (even if they have a lame name). However it sucked, one of the crimps was sloppy and fell off. Luckly this happened during installation and not during a race. Sad, because everything else looks nice but now I can't trust it... Advice, stay away.

djsteviec Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 I used one for a few years in my CR-X. You are right. It looks good, but is very cheaply made. Luckily, knowing that- check all the connections to make sure they are tight. Also, the push button starter switch will go. I ordered a better aftermarket one after mine crapped out. Now it is all solid. Not used anymore, and in my box of race car spare parts, but solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyKid Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 I just bought 2 moroso ones and resetting breaker style blade fuses. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/mor-74131/overview/ I got moroso since its the only one that has a sub panel that matched. I am happy with it, I think it will hold up, but who really knows... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoparBoyy Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 we have quickcar switch panels in both cars, havn't had any issues. the Moroso one was on back order when i bought the second quickcar one. the one in the mazda is many years old and the bulbs have all burned out, but who cares really.

TBone Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 If you want to make your own, try Front Panel Express. The design software is pretty easy to use. https://www.frontpanelexpress.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indysupra Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) https://quartermax.com/shop-all-departments/electrical-ignition-racepak/switch-panels-wiring-supplies/switch-panels/ can get these with milspec switches. They are expensive but the best. Edited February 2, 2019 by Indysupra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Infiniti Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) From county auctions I have a pile of these, individual blade fuses in back Edited February 2, 2019 by Team Infiniti 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've made a couple of gauge and switch panels. Pricing depends on size, material, number of holes, text, etc. I think this one was $80 or $90. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyKid Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Moroso had a bad switch from the factory. Intermittently bad on the light circuit. Luckily I have redundant circuits and caught it before Atlanta. Not happy for $100+ each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
