Is there a way to use all 7 spaces?

The panel uses a printed circuit board behind it. Not sure if it can be done or not, but adding more factory switches to it would require a great deal of soldering work. You may be able to find a place to drill through the board to run wires to an aftermarket type switch mounted in the blank locations.

Very nice. Ram should have left the 3 center dummy switches solid, and had a small RAM logo here.

Anything like this available for the 2008 where the power rear window resides? Would come in quite handy and clean looking for my emergency lighting install...

Can anyone give me measurements on this panel by chance? Measuring the full width front and back of the unit as well as depth would be awesome!!!

Not sure exactly which measurements you are looking for.

First time poster here. Will try and answer. I'm currently using the information in this thread to put in my own functions on the auxiliary switches, so I just got mine.

The switches themselves sit on a base that sits in a little frame that replaces the frame on the Dodge RAM insert for the centre console, so if you have the Dodge Ram for the appropriate years, you have the console, and you likely have the RAM insert, and therefore have the approximate frame measurements.

The switches are mounted so they are in a similar arc to the centre console. I'm not sure of best way to measure that arc, but again, if you have the console, you have the arc.

The base of each of the 7 switch blocks (4 working, 3 blanks) is rectangular, about .95in by .8in.

The base the switches are set in is about 6.75 in by 1 inch.

That base is in the frame. It's so irregular, I'm not sure how to measure it.

Does that help?

I can't figure out how to upload more than one photo. Urggh.

Does this switch panel work in 2013 models? Everyone here seems to have 2011/12.

No, this will not work on 2013s. The dash has changed.
