    Question '05 201 Pro XL

    Has anyone replaced all of their switches? I'm sure some have. All of them work but some are starting to break and others are fading. Have replaced a few with a generic replacement. Where did you order them with all the labels printed on them and how much, if you remember. Thanks!!

    I have have that same boat, and have done my switches. New Wire Marine has everything. Here's my panel. Had a little fun with one of the unused accessory switches (bottom left).

    These are the etched rocker Contura V ones. https://newwiremarine.com/marine-gra...etched-covers/

    They're 8.99 for just the covers.

    One more note. The recirc and livewell switches, I used new wire marine's custom switch builder for those. They have all the standard ones but you can also use their builder to make them the way you want them. I always felt the default labels were not very intuitive. Custom builder is here : https://newwiremarine.com/product/custom-actuator/

    These are 12 bucks.

    Thanks for the info. I have an 07 and plan to do this once I replace the lower unit I just blew up this weekend.
