I put mine above the mirror using the Daystar panel that I cut up to fit. Sorry I can not take credit for this as I got it from another forum member.

Here is the write up for it. https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-write-ups-39/another-switch-mount-option-above-rear-view-mirror-35335/

It was very easy to do

This works horrible. I have the daystar panel in my 6spd, with just one rocker to the far left. It clears all gears, any other spot I'd imagine it to hit pretty well. Daystar told me to "push the boot down"...I told them to make a product to where installing it into a manual vehicle wasn't an afterthought. They didn't like that.

Here are mine added to the stock switch panel. I am using them for heated seats, but could run anything.

Thanks for the information.....looks like this will be nixed off the list of mod's.

That looks sharp ge2....but unfortunately that is where my power window switches sit.

Heres mine. I modified a Daystar panel and mounted it above the mirror.

There is at least one, pictures were floating around a year ago or so. I considered that until the DayStar-over-the-mirror alternative to the banned MFR was posted. That's my plan at the moment anyway. I'm just working out what to do with relays.
