Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I ended up putting the switches in the
console right behind the shifter. It'll be a pain to replace if I ever
decide to sell the truck but I like the location. What kind of light bar do
you have on your truck Dakota Dodge? I've got a whelen mini edge that
should be all hooked up as of tomorrow night. I'll get some pics posted
soon after that. I'd like to see any you may have as well.
