Amazon type switch panels

[MetricMachine]

Starting a rebuild on a 17ft aluminum center console. Replacing all wiring and the original switch panel. Wondering if anyone is having success with the budget friendly Amazon integrated switch panels. I would like to keep things simple and clean for wiring. Naturally the price point is attractive, Im also realistic and dont want to replace this every 6 months.

None of them have the features I'm looking for. I may have to buy the components and make my own panel. Off hand, does iBoats carry the switches and fuse holder components?

You can get the carling switches from Newark for about $4ea. The carling circuit breakers from Grainger for about $3ea
You can get laser etched carling actuators with their function labels from Blue Sea Systems, Pacer Group or others

I replaced all my wiring and electronics this winter. I used this switch panel, and it was fine. I did not hook up the constant light wiring, as to not drain the battery. I also ran a direct wire to each switch as to not overload the fuse panel with only one positive wire.
