The on-line MK4 build site recommends (talks about) adding supports for the relatively heavy ignition and headlight switches to keep them straight/level/horizontal ...

http://mk4build.com/manual/doku.php?id=dash_covering

Couple related questions:

1. Has anyone done this? If "yes", how did you do it .... if different from what's noted on the build site?

2. Has anyone NOT done some sort of switch support ... and wish they had done so?

Lastly, the FFR supplied dash is 0.040 thick. Many of us have changed to a thicker dash (0.063 in most cases).

Any thoughts on the thicker/heavier dashes making this (supporting heavy switches) NOT be an issue or concern?

Thanks for any feedback and/or experience
