I contacted you through ebay to let me know when you had more 'Bunny Burners'.

Can you print custom labels?

So would the large black one power the winch and the red one operate? If so, perfect. One switch to do both.

I'd say the red switch is to select between IN or OUT and the large black part is to engage motor in whatever direction you've selected. Not an isolator.

I thought the red bit was to confuse people on forums
Anything is possible, it just comes down to time and money.

I didnt think that there was a restriction on genuine vendors doing business on the forum?
Spammers obviously have something to answer for.
if it is a genuine "for sale item" why not sell to the members?
they seem keen?

Maybe a ruling from a mod?
obviously not in this thread.
Keep it shiny side up!

TO ANSWER EVERYONES QUESTIONS..

The ones I sell on EBAY are that price for several reasons.

1.To cover costs that are incurred by using Ebay. Soon to stop.

2.To re-coup the cost of the machine that prints them...$$Mega Dollars$$

3.To slow the demand down as they sell faster than I can print them.

They are going to come down in price in 2 weeks time.

Outers members will get a discount.

If you dont like the price..dont buy them and dont complain like the last person.

The cost of the printing plate to make a 1 of a kind switch is $23.
So one off's are not feasible.

You wont get these designs from any ARB shop or distributor or any other shop.

I design and print the switches. Custom jobs can be done, but depends on quantity.

If you have any suggestions / ideas for what would be usefull as a switch image and text, PLEASE email me at
customrockers@bigpond.com

You can buy the rocker body from ARB for approx $14
the ( BLANK ) acutator cover is approx $7
Plus the cost of driving to the shop and parking.
But not everyone lives 5 mins away from an ARB store...

You can only get ..Compressor..Front and Rear locker switches with images from them.

I am looking into supplying ARB themselves.

Im currently not producing any as the new machine is still to be installed and setup.

Online shop to open soon.

Marine switches will also be available soon.

I have tried to cover every type of switch image there is but Im still getting requests for certain ideas....keep them comming.

i got mine from www.mudstuff.co.uk, they're pretty well priced, but probably not the same quality in terms of the labels as they are stickers, u get a sheet with heaps of varying labels, can choose colours, different style of switchs, etc.

and the red switches, u need to move the red bit to enable the switch, i got one like pictured for my winch but decided not to use it as its actually a PITA to use, better just having a switch to isolate the winch then another switch to operate the winch, on-off-on with a automatic return to off

Let me know when you get "Anti-Gravity".... :D

Cool switches, you're tapping into a fairly large market with these custom rockers. Good on you and good luck.
