Replacement dash switch blanks

[jimc91]

Morning,
I appreciate this is an old thread, but does / did anyone find anywhere to find these dash blanking buttons/covers?
Thanks

I bought some from Exterior / Interior Parts and Accessories - Van Parts Direct

I have seen them on eBay, but VW dealer may be the best bet.

These are perfect. Great online shop, hadn't found any for the T6 since I had been looking.

switches now made

Appreciate I may be jumping in without following the full thread but I need to do same just to switch the relay signal for additional spotlights, is this the switch you would recommend and I guess drilling an oem blank?

Can I ask for a bit of advice please does this switch blank assy come apart? I’m going to add a rocker switch and I can modify the whole thing if required but do the front bits come away from the full assembly?

Hi all
Is there anywhere that does the T6 square dash switches? Looking for something generic that will push in and latch with a light for powering relays to the rear 12v power outlets.
I’d rather not use the round 16mm switches if I can help it.
Thanks

I've found it once before but can't find the post tonight! T6 shuttle, 6 blanking plates on RHS of dash, I need replacements for upper middle and upper right - can anyone help with part no's or suppliers please?
Many thanks
Steve

I’ve moved your post here as this looks like the thread you refer to.
Clicking on the Dash board switch tag will take you to similar threads

Does anyone know where i can buy blank switches for a t6? Not a switch blank that doesn't move, an actual switch with a blank cover? I have a laser cutter and I'm experimenting with engraving custom images onto the front of the switch. My main objective is to transfer the guts of my gate opener remote into the back of the switch and have a neater solution than having to have a loose remote in the van. I've got a reasonable image of a gate engraved onto a blank so far, but I can't seem to find a blank switch to use!

I am afraid you have to sand down one of your original switches and then get it spary painted.

I got few done by @DJ821, see below.
