    2018 4Runner TRD Offroad edition (2000 Tacoma sold in 2018)
    Lift, tires, wheels, bumper, winch, sliders, skids, regeared
    Remote mounted using a basic toggle switch (one that you push and it clicks back right away) against my console, driver's side, on my previous vehicle. Extended the 12V bolt battery leads as necessary, and tucked the 12V battery under the carpet, but in an accessible space for swapping out when the battery died. Kind of like what they have on them "new" vehicles!

    Stealth, no visor, easy, and very handy.

    Sorry, no pics.

    Why don't you clip it to your visor? That's the most convienent spot.

    Bone stock for now....
    I've been keeping mine in the coin tray to the left of the steering wheel. The clip doesn't really fit the visor well due to thickness and I'm OCD so I hate stuff floating around my cab.

    The remote toggle switch sounds way cool as does the console cover. May try one of those.

    The safest place possible....on my keychain.

    However this is not recommended if you are prone to losing your keys....or if you have a rather large garage door opener.
