Default accessories switches

I am planing on mounting some lights to the windshield. I was curious to see where ppl were putting them. I was also going to ask if there is any switches that i can put infront of the shifter? where the traction control is. any thoughts please help out. thanks.

Picture of the switches. But if you only need two I'm sure you could drill them into the blank spots

I used the Daystar panel and switches. I believe mine is made for an automatic though.

I like that set up... where did you get that? I am really digging that. Im sure i will need more that 2 eventually so I might as well get something that comes with multiple set switches.

Its the oem plastic pillar. There was enough room in the back to run the wires and put the switches in also.

This is the stock switch provided with KC Hilites.
Installed left of the steering column, where the rubicon fun switches would be.
