As is my nature to not leave well enough alone in the off season, (Does this happen to anyone else?) I've found myself installing accessories that require a beefing up of my current electrical system.  I've added a "house" battery and a Blue Sea Systems switch and fuse block to feed my tower lights, radio, speakers, useless stuff, etc...  Now that I've run out of stock switches for everything, I've ordered a 6 gang switch panel and ran into a problem I didn't foresee. 

So as you all may have observed, every square inch of a runabout is upholstered, so my question is...   

Does anyone have any advice on how to install a switch panel on a perfectly upholstered bulkhead?!

After the money spent on seat upholstery restoration, it makes me nervous to take a box cutter to pure gold fabric.
