Switch Locations!

Anyone else?

 

Here's what I did two weeks ago:

 

I have a manual sadly

 

Is there no room under the center console at all? I know the cup holders are different but I saw where someone took an FJ switch panel cut out the cup holder and a bit around it and mounted it there. Still an auto but perhaps a similar version is possible for a manual...

Ill try to find the thread.

I mounted my driving lights toggle on the side of the center vault, i wanted it to be within easy reach, so I put it where my right fingers land when i rest my arm on the armrest.

 

Manual has both cupholders below the shifter, so the FJ panel would be too narrow to cover both (and he may not want to remove his cupholders).

 

I thought you were in my truck for a second! I have same coin holder haha. But a good place is even the little cuby to the right of the steering wheel. That way if you ever sell you can just replace the tray.

 

Yeah, I never even use that little cubby. Maybe I should start The change is usually in the long narrow tray that the pen and my crab occupy in that picture. I had to remove the console cover so the change moved for a short time.

 

I know I didn't want to remove my cup holder. Its one of about 3 out of the like 18 that I actually use. I'm just throwing ideas at the OP at this point.

 

LOL!

I've got an RC 2.7 auto. I have two... it's just the "oval" with the plastic piece with the arms.
Go around a corner and the arms retract and the cup flips out.

First day with the truck, I learned to flip the lid on my Starbucks commuter cup closed before putting it down.

 

this is what my cupholder looks like

not a problem removing the cup holder just no space for the switches

 

Haha! What does that switch say? Zombie what? LOL
I love it

 

Zombie response lights. The words light up with the dash and the biohazard symbol with the bed lights. Theres also a switch in the bed for them.



As to not having room for the switches, why not the top right section as it is in the picture, or completely removing the bottom left cup holder and using that space for blanks?

 

might remove the top right one

 

top left*

 

Any one else? before i start dremeling

 

FJC T-case and a Crawler

Got a build thread or more pics?

Also, where'd you get the black piece behind all the switches in the sun-glass holder?
