Radio Bezel Idea (new title)
I have an idea to make my own Radio Bezel with a fog light switch. I went down and bought everything, but I don't really care for the condition of the bezel's coating that Ford put on them. So I have some questions and hopefully somebody has tried to fix theirs before and will have some input.
Nevermind about the coating questions, I found a better one that is not peeling.
I'll post some pics, I'm pretty sure this is going to turn out like I want it to =). Basically what I did is find one Explorer that had a fog light switch, but since it also had a defrost switch, I just robbed the fog light switch and lighter socket out of it. I then went and found an Explorer with defrost only and put the fog light switch in it's place. So my project is to take the wiper switch and turn it into a lighter/power socket. Then I'll paint over the letters and hopefully it looks how I want it to. I got all of this and a relay for 20 bucks.
