I have a JD Gator 850d and i am getting ready to install a winch. Does anyone know of a switch that looks like and can mount in factory slot. I would like to keep it looking nice by finding a rocker switch that fits in the extra mounting location. thanks

I used the one that came with my Superwinch. I went to a couple local auto parts stores but the ones they had were the same size. I ended up mounting mine in the blank that comes in the dash and reinstalling the entire thing back in the dash. A rectangle had to be cut out of the blank the size of the switch. It took a little time and fitting but looks nice and clean and mounts easily back in the dash once the switch is in the blank.

I also considered using a 3-position toggle switch that returns to the center position. I don't think this would look bad and would only need a hole drilled in the center of the blank for installation.

Is it the rectangular slot?
You probably want one that is off in the center, with one side winch in and the other winch out.
I have some on/off for Gator but they are not likely what you want. Just may be the right size.

You could order the up/down switch for the gator box lift that is a rocker. Part no. AM116712 from jdparts.
