Hey Im getting to the point where I need to start figuring out what Im gonna do with switches. All Im going to run is a on off switch, a hi/lo beam switch and a horn switch. I would like them to be all on one side of the bar in the same housing. Does anyone know of a good idea or what others are using? Any help is good help because Ive searched alot to try to find one and nothing really jumps out and says this is it....
 
I am thinking of running my (on/kill,high/low,light on/off,ignition key) on the left side of my under the seat box. So I can operate them without having to move my hand off the throttle.

For the horn, which I debated even having until two days ago I got run off the road while driving my truck, I am thinking of running a small momentary button in my bars. $1.59 at radio shack. Little red button and the threads are long enough to fit through the 1" bars.

Thats 'all I got' for now.
 
I wouldnt run a horn but I have to have one in order to pass inspection in Missouri. Otherwise I would just yell and flip the bird...:yikes:

These look super clean, but only two buttons....

Not cheap but three buttons.
 
Sorry, I should have told you in the first place, my bad.

The first switch pictured is made by Pingel it's called their slim line switch:

You can get it in black or chrome:

One of the best things I ever did was get myself a free copy of the Drag Specialties catalog on CD, as well as the V-Twin Mfg catalog. It makes finding stuff super easy.
