Default Switch & Control Panels

Anyone seen these? Came across their site a while back and found their link again.
Prime 4x4

Searched with no luck... but here are some of their products.







LED Rock Lights



Curious about their switch panels. I have seen some home made ones on here using bits and pieces from scrap parts. These look neat and some come with switches as an option. I like the idea of the gauge mount with switches in front of the shifter.

The panels are easy to make. But lights under a jeep? Those might work for a civic or a jeep that never hits mud.

They do look cool. But the cost is not worth it if your jeep goes on trails. Mud, rocks and other thing hitting the under careage to high risk of breaking a $40 light.

$40 light???

Try it if it looks cool, it's as cheap as $1 per foot for the lights.

I used the cheap fog lights at Pep Boys several years ago. But LED is something I wanted tos replace them with. And we dont do mudding here in Vegas, its mostly desert sand or rock crawling so something similar will be fine.
And the price was the killer for the rock lights. I cant justify spending $100 on them.
Saw over on JF another member install the panels on his '91 and they look nice. His is set up for the lockers and stuff.
