I have a '12 GLDS and want to add a live-well so that I can start walleye fishing.  There really is no room for a portable ice chest type of unit.   What do others use? Are the any made to fit inside the lounges?

They're Carling switches.   Can't find the exact style faceplate (actuator) but it is easily removable.  I just bought the DPDT switch with 2 dependent lights for under $20 and will use old actuator.  Simple, though it took a while to figure out.

Are these switches Bennington only?  I can't find exact replacements anywhere.  I need the one on the left that has two positions, two lights, and has "ACC" in the lower position.  I may just have to buy a set of plain ones if I can't find these.

It's cool.  They even use plastic buckets as the source material to fill and patch similar plastics (eg #2 to #2).  Lots of videos on youtube.

Does anyone know what type of plastic that the seats/benches are made?

Plastic welding is the way to go.  I'm looking into it now.  Thanks!

My salvaged 2275 had a tree fall on it.  Apart from upholstery rips it cracked the plastic seat structure. I tried patching it with a car fiberglass repair kit but after two days of drying, the fiberglass just peeled off. Any suggestions on how to repair this myself? - don't suggest dealer...

Took my salvaged 2275 in to have a leak repaired.  Coolest thing was that the welder pressurized the toon after the repair, heard a pop/bang and saw that the gnarly crinkle had mostly straightened out.  He took a hammer and lightly tapped around and now one can hardly see any damage at all...
