No, I didn't. They aren't that bad and I don't know how I would cut all of those small switch holes. They have to be more precise than anything else. I wasn't actually intending on replacing the main panels at this time either, but when I took the dash apart to work on my electronics, I could see that there wasn't much I could do to install the new electronics and use the old panel. So one thing just let to another. I've stopped at this point for now. I think I'd need some kind of CNC to cut the holes for the switches.
I think there are some precut panels available from some of the companies making aftermarket panels.
It is always amazing how one thing always seems to lead to another.......
