Toyota sunglass holder turned into a switch panel

I've been kicking around the idea to modify the sunglass holder to house my accessorie switches for my Hella 700's, undercarriage lights (aka "rock lights") and the electric fans. I have another thread with some pics of the e-fan install and how the lines are run for that. everything is pretty much the same on routing of the wires. Future additions will be bed lights and back-up/side lights

I've migrated my aux. light switches to the sunglass holder. Connected the 12V source to dome lighting. Which is constant. So, I can turn on the fan and aux. lights without the key having to be in the acc on on position. The 12V source and the ground line is run, I believe the correct term is, in parallel. This makes it look a bit cleaner without a bunch of wires going through the opening. The switch lines were run independently to their respective relays. Starting on the left: driving lights, "rock" lights, electric fan. Here's the pics.

Very nicely done.. Only think I might have done is chosen different switches, and put them all the way across the holder to make it look more uniform.. You can always find a use for more switches!
