Re:Interior Light Switch Placements for Roof Lights

[Hummie2]

The switches do not light up as yet. I have been thinking how I could back light them by installing a LED below the wiper sw in the empty box where everyone else mounted their sw. Then drill some 1/4" holes in the face of the lower portion of of wiper sw where the sw pads are mounted, next mount the pad to clear piece of thin plastic and glue the plastic to the face of the wiper sw. The switch pad should be translucent enough to appear illuminated. Sounds like a lot of work and I don't have the time right now.

I use the switches to energize relays which will power up my lights. Haven't got everything completed yet. Also I installed diodes at + outputs of the sw module to stop feedback into the module as I use my high headlamps to energize some of the relays also. Didn't know if the module would handle backfeed or not, so diodes were a saftey precaution to protect the module electronics.
