I want one above the rear view mirror. My concern is a switch being hit accidentally, especially if I drop something. I have my locker wired in so it can turn on in any transfer case gear. Keeping it up and away from wandering hands and the concern of dropping something would be my best advice. It will also allow you to keep your eyes on the trail while hitting your switches on/off. I even made a small box that I would wrap in the same fabric as the headliner its just mounting the damn thing. I want to keep it removable, I just havent come up with the final plan yet. I need to get on it though, I really need to clean up that rats nest of wires.
