anybody incorporate switch for garage door opener

Has anyone incorporated a switch for their garage door opener into a Mini dash? I have one device for my garage and another for the main gate to get into the community where I live and would love to get rid of all that clutter if possible.

opener

I got a rolling code transmitter on ebay and installed in the sunroof trim ring. Wired into the overhead lights. A little careful cutting and trimming and wala!
I had a picture posted of the finished product on here somewhere but I can't find it. Just look for one with the same color cover plate as your trim piece.

Here's a link I posted previously on my HomeLink installation. Gives you three buttons you can program. You can buy the rolling code HomeLink transmitters for ~$20 on eBay.
