    Any KW dealer has a list (printout) of all of the switch plates and options.
    You can pick/choose any or all...they can be spendy... (over $15 each)

    I have all of them for the older rigs but nothing as new as your rig.
    The dealer can print them or fax them out to you and they list part numbers along with a description.

    Just ask KW.

    Well a list would be nice, but an actual graphic would be even better. Next time I go to the kw dealer I might ask. A picture of the actual switches and their corresponding part numbers would be useful for those of us wanting to wire in aftermarket stuff. If someone doesnt already have something like that maybe I can make it and upload it here.

    I dont know if you will find that. Most switches (rockers) look the same but for the text or icon on them.
    Again, hit the dealer...if they cant offer what your looking for - then scour the internet for pictures of some dashes.
    Thats how I started and found out a few options (much like what your seeking) and then called the dealer.
    Find a dealer with a parts guy that isnt some dipstick out of high school that can only use a VIN and point and click in the PACCAR system. My parts guy has 30yrs and knows what stuff is what w/o needing a VIN.
    What good is your VIN gonna do when the rig doesnt have what your looking to add ?!

    With the older style, most toggles are similar but the label is unique.
    KW offers Euro style icons or text.

    All of mine are text. They contain LEDs and light up and KW made a change in the color of the text when lit, so if you added one - they all looked off. So...I ended up replacing all of mine (over 1yr) and added probably 6-8 new switches with labels. $$$

    He has been MIA for a long time...."Last Activity 01.28.2013"
    You can try and contact the dealer but good luck getting any wiring diagram...its easier to pull teeth.

    I've never really found a source for these for my 99. I use whats left of the labels as a guide and then just kinda figure out what the rest of everything else is....

    It's likely you will be on your own on this one...

    if you need a wiring diagram from k/w you need to find the shop foreman or the service writer and tell them what you are trying to figure out and discuss it with them for a few minutes, then ask if it is possible if he might be able to print you out a copy of the diagram for that problem so you can try and fix it. has worked for me quite often.
