Best location for mounting switches??
Where did you order your switches echo? Ive been looking for high quality aircraft switches, and would love to replace my lit rocker with them.
Oh and just remove your a pillar cover and mount switches in it. You don't need to buy from rugged ridge, you just need a drillbit.

I like my light switches by the emergency brake. I rest my hand there, when I drive. I like the switches to be easy and quick to turn off and on, incase I meet another driver. I use mine for hwy driving too.
Bit pricey, but one of the guys in my jeep club found this

The JKSwitch package consists of an ABS molded dash piece designed to look factory. The dash piece has a large storage bin (approximately 3 ½" by 3 ½" with depths ranging from 1 ¾" just behind switches to ¾" at aft end). The five switches are located within easy reach of the driver and are illuminated for easy visibility. User is supplied with twelve plastic adhesive backed labels (including 4 blank labels) covering most accessory uses for easy install as you grow and modify your accessories. The dash panel is easily installed in place of the factory panel and utilizes all the same mounting hardware. A screwdriver and a pair of needle nose pliers and the dash piece is in.
In addition to the molded dash piece and labels, the package comes with a SSMFG wiring harnesses to integrate with the JK factory wiring harness and a generic winch harness which will work with all standard electric winches. All JK connectors are provided, it is just unplug, insert our harness as directed and replug.
The command center of the JKSwitch is housed in a sealed compartment to be mounted in a SSMFG designated area under the hood. The package comes with a specially designed mounting bracket designed for the JK, the printed circuit board, and aluminum cast cover.
If you are not familiar with wiring, NO WORRIES! We have designed this to be really simple so that virtually anyone can wire their own accessories. If you are a wiring pro, you will appreciate the cleanliness of the design and future troubleshooting ease.

That simplesolutions panel looks great. Does it work with the compass that's normally glued under there? (Not that I actually use that compass, but...)
Here's what I did for my air compressor switch:
