Simple answer: No, the switch panel is not required.
Long answer: See any of the above posts.

Thanks.

It seems like he does know what he is talking about. I would suggest you read carefully before you post an assumption.

by using a painless kit and NOT using the factory switches in the car you eliminate wiring, most of which is not needed. this is the reason that comment was made to him. Painless is usually for race car purposes and painless doesnt just control headlights turn signals, it is usually used to turn off fuel pump...ecu...starter...ignition...things along those lines...

None of those switches are for headlights, signals, etc. They're for ignition, start, fuel pump, etc. It just doesn't help when people talk about something as complicated(sometimes) as wiring without any actual knowledge of it.

I'm not saying I know a ton, but posts like that just aren't helping anything regarding the topic.

PS. Listen to g6civcx. He knows what he's talking about. Haha.

To be fair, you can use the switches for anything you like. Some are momentary like starter, most are on/off. I can't make out the writing in the pix but it looks like the ones that come on a standard Painless switch panel.

I don't know about all that, but thanks for the vote of confidence.


Really, I can help you run just about any custom wiring you want. The problem is complexity. Even if I draw diagrams for you, you still have to think about wire gauge, routing, connections, grounds, insulations, etc. when you actually make the circuit.

Why are you doing this? If you just want to simplify, just eliminate all the components you don't want. Any wires going to these components, provided they don't piggyback off or is used by something else, can be eliminated.

I've seen 3 0r 4 different people ask this with no answer, WHY are you interested in this? If it is to save weight and reduce complication on a car that is for street AND track you would be better off forgetting the painless stuff and re-doing your stock wiring. If you had a fire or something happened that destroyed your wiring then just get some used factory harnesses and re-do them. If you are building a full out racecar then use the painless stuff as it will remove a BIT more weight and the wiring will be a bit less complicated.

This company is cheaper and does the same thing:

But, yeah why do you want to rewire the car? Is your wire harness missing or damaged?
