Switch Panel Projects
We’ve literally built thousands of completely custom marine grade switch panels. See below for a small selection of those.
If you see a panel and would like to have something similar made for you, please contact us with the panel number shown below and what modifications you you’d like to see.
Just to give you a rough idea of what one of our custom panels may run. Please don’t fixate on the estimates though, we have a wide range of options and pricing. Give us a call with your specs and we’re happy to get you real numbers.
18. Yellowfin switch panel with blue LEDs
Black Panel Material
Blue LED Rocker Switches – custom etched
Logo Engraving – blue backlighting
Built-in Dimmer Switch
Circuit Breakers & USB Charger
In this Yellowfin switch panel replacement, we used blue LED backlit rocker switches with our custom etched contura V switch covers.
We installed a built in dimmer (see it to the right of the logo?) that allows the (rather bright) blue LEDs to be dimmed when you don’t want them at full brightness running at night.
Approx Cost: $900 – $1150

17. 15 Switch Panel on White
- White
- Etched/Backlit rockers (white lights)
- Circuit Breakers
- Logo and pinstripe engravings
- Instrument Cutouts
This customer needed a large, odd shaped, dash panel that he could mount some large Garmins into. He also wanted to highlight the boat name.
We convinced him to try a pinstripe to break up the white panel on white fiberglass, and it really came out great.
Approx Cost: $725 – $1000

16. Bocatech Panel on Black
Black
Resettable Bocatech Push Buttons
Text and Logo engravings (backlit blue)
Here’s an example switch panel using our bocatech resettable push button switches.
Text illumination and nice large Chris Craft logo are backlit when the panel lights switch is on.
The LED rings were pre-wired on this one to come on when the switches are on as an indicator light.

15. 9 Switch Panel on Brushed Silver
- Brushed Silver
- Etched/Backlit rockers (white lights)
- Circuit Breakers
- Logo and pinstripe engravings
This switch panel was a lot of fun. This customer wanted something really snazzy for his Blazer boat, and their spot tail logo was really nice.
We used a large logo and ran it off the edge of the panel – and “under” the switches – and we thought it really came out looking cool!
We also added a pinstripe boarder to this one. That’s a little retro look normally, but combined with the logo etchings ended up looking awesome.
Approx Cost: $475 – $650

14. Single Switch Panel with Logo
Black
Backlit white contura V switch
Logo Engraved and Backlit Red
Here’s a night shot of a simple little switch panel with a nice red backlit logo engraving.
The contrast of the switch illumination and logo backlighting really made the logo pop on this little guy.
We use backlights that are not too bright to interfere with your night vision, but enough to make a stunning display in the dark.
Approx Cost: $100 – $150

This customer (James) was super great to work with. We actually did another small panels for him since. Here’s what he had to say:
“You and your guys have been great to work with on both projects. I wish more companies were as phenomenal to deal with as you have been. Everyone who has seen the panel loves it and asks who made it. They really like the blue back lighting, no one has seen that before. Thanks again for everything, you have a customer for life and I will tell everyone looking for this type of product the go to place is New Wire Marine.”
He was kind enough to send us a few shots of the installed product as well. Thank you James!

BACKLIGHTS ON

As you can see in the second image, this was taken in pretty much broad daylight, and the backlights are still quite bright. If this was to be used a lot at night, and the panel was higher on the helm than James’ was, we would recommend a dimmer.

This customer was nice enough to send us a before and after shot… which we really appreciate! Thanks Jerry!
You can see, not only is the appearance improved, but he’s able to run both MFD’s now, AND has the advantage of backlit rockers that can be used easily at night.

- White Carbon Fiber

White Carbon Fiber print looks great. You can see the pattern pretty well in this shot.

This panel could almost be build with our E-Panel Builder and save some coin… if it wasn’t for the custom labels.

5. 15 Switch on White C/F
- White Carbon Fiber
- Etched/Backlit Rockers
