where did you mount you toggle switches?

[bzahler]

I am looking for ideas on where to put some toggle switches for the winch and extra lighting. The only thing I can come up with is mounting a alum. angle on the bottom of the dash under the speedometer. Not Shure I like that idea. Anybody put anything on the bottom of the windshield?

I Would suggest using the toggle switch that came with the winch controller along with a safety switch to keep unwanted fingers off. Mounting it under the dash is a good location to start with as you can move it to a different location if you feel it should be somewhere else.

Can you post a picture of your dash?

I may have had more unused real estate than you, but this is what mine looks like

Thanks for the replies. Torxhead I do have a guarded switch and two pushbuttons for the winch that I got from the 12volt guy. IO I had thought about putting them in the center console but didn't know how to run the wires in a clean way. Can you explain how you ran your wires?

Here is my custom console

I made a plate that replaced the radio ( can't hear the radio anyway) and placed four switches on it.
