P1000m5 PBR switch panel fasteners

[Wsmithgunworks]

I just bought a 2021 1K5 LE and am planning on adding a few accessories that require switches. So, I bought the PBR switch panel and really do not want to use the rivets to fasten it to the dash. I've looked through the forum and haven't found any ideas....I'd like to have access to the back of the panel just in case I have to do any work on the back of switches....any ideas or links to other discussions?

Hi,
Ya, don't pop rivet those in... Just use some black wood screws.
Or drill the hole out and use the honda plastic fender clips.
Both work great to allow easy removal.

You can easily access the back of the panel from under the hood and pop your rockers out or whathaveya with the rivets provided.. I’ve swapped out and added rockers once installed with no issues..

I just installed their panel yesterday and say I really like the build.

I used the rivets, the back is pretty easy to get to, but if you need to pull it just drill them out and install new rivets. Or if you end up having to pull it more than you would like replace the rivets with something easier to pull the panel.

I use rivet nuts and Allen head screws.

I used stainless screws and lock nuts to slow the thieves

I used these black head screws from Home Depot and secured them with wing nuts from behind.

Congrats on your new toy, I also am a new 21' 1K5 LE owner and I hope you're having as much fun as I am!

I used stainless screws because I knew I would be into it again.

Drill out rivet holes with 5/16 drill bit and use the 8mm plastic body rivets to install plate. That's how I've done mine on P700

 

[Bobbyh83]

I used small bolts. Had a helper hold the nut in place with a wrench. Removeable if need be and rock solid.

I drilled out the rivets that holds the warning label on, then installed 10-32 rivet nuts and bolted it on using black stainless steel button head screws. Matches all the rest of the factory hardware. (other than being metric, but u cant tell that by eye anyway.)

I use the body panel plastic rivets works great

 

[cornbiscuits]

I was worried that the push pins wouldn't hold the panel tight against the dash enough to prevent rattling, but I guess this isn't the case? Does anybody experience rattling using push pins?

 

[Rhino-F350]

Not even a little bit , when pin is pushed in it tightens up on the whole as long as your hole is the correct size 5/16 if I remember correctly.

I didn't want to rivet mine down, either, so I used M5 screws. I didn't use any fasteners on the back side because I couldn't get my big ol hands in there. No issues, though.

Looks great!

Nice and easy use cup holders all the time

I really like these small-head push clips. They look pretty factory, are removable without accessing the backside, and stay secure.

do yourself a favor and order some of these because the rocker switches provided suck.
