Default toggle switches

I just bought some of those toggle switches with the red flip up safety cover on them, like the ones in airplanes, im gonna install a panel and mount it somewhere in my car, any ideas of what I should control using the switches? any interesting mods?

So you bought them for no reason?You could wire your fans to them if you have electric fans.Or you put some of those cool neons on your car and wire them to the switch! Mabey NOS

Stick it in your dash or console. Above it get an indicator light, either just a red one or better still if you can find an indicator light with some writing on it, like "armed" or "active"

Then wire it up so the switch turns that light on/off.. and nothing else!

Then when you've got passengers in the car just randomly flick the switch on (turns on the light) but don't tell them what it is, perhaps even look a bit nervous when flicking on the switch
