Pictures to come later but I was able to find a set off of older f350 with relays, wiring harness and also took out fuse box from under dash for less than $100. (Local wrench a part)

Didn't someone mount the AUX switches in the dimmer location and move the dimmer down below?

I mounted them there my last truck as well. It was a great location, but was a LOT more work to get them to fit there. The lower mount was just so much easier and just as neat IMO. I am 6' tall and havnt hit the switches with my knee yet.

I wish I would have kept the switches behind the bezel. But I put them on top like Desa did on his first truck.
Yes it is a bit of work to get them fit in there. Lots of plastic cutting and sanding / grinding.

Glad your not having any problem getting in and out with the switches mounted below. Good info to add.

for better words, I lack long reaching arms... but i still find blindly hitting my right side nook switches easier than the oem location, due to shifter. Left side would be ideal, but for me it was too much work extending the trailer brake harness

I hear you there. I've been considering moving the trailer brake controller to the right nook and installing the switches in it's spot. I'm not sure it's worth the effort, but I would definitely use those switches a lot more often than I'd use the brake controller.

How hard is it to move the brake controller? They should have put that somewhere else from the start
