Some of the first modifications you should make to your overlanding vehicle is lighting, you need to be able to see where you are going when venturing off the beaten path. Whether you are driving through your back yard or climbing rocks in the woods, lighting is essential! Get rid of your under utilized factory ash tray(smoking is bad anyways) and replace it with your own personalized control panel for all of your add on electronics. Lighting is crucial and with specific switches tailored to all of the E53 lighting options you have a full suite of switches to match your lighting upgrades. Dont stop at lighting this switch panel can be used for whatever type of electronics your heart desires!

The switch panel fits in your dash perfectly and features 5 switch ports with an added securing point to manage your wires nice and tidy. To make this switch panel so versatile it was designed to accept a standard rocker/toggle switch with a 1.46" x 0.83" mounting hole. Not only does ECS offer switches specific to your X5 lighting additions but they also have blank switches to control universal electronics and blank switch plates for if you do not want to utilize all 5 ports.

Design:

The E53 switch panel idea originated from ECS engineer Mike Day when adding a full build out of lighting to his overland X5. The best ideas come from the people who are in the process of achieving a goal and find a solution to help them complete the job, but better! The switch panel was designed off of a 3D scan of the E53 X5 interior and features OEM+ fitment to blend with your interior.
