Who has some other "easy locations" for the Chip switch

It use to be once in a blue moon the little guy would accidently
hit my Chip Switch with his foot. TG I usually figure it out
immediatly due to the differant RPM shift points and feel of shift.
However recently it seems he manages to hit it numerous times
a day. Neither one of us see's him do it either, if I didn't know
better I swear Gator was doing it in hope we run while I have
my programs shut down.

I have it in the usual easy location, (since the hole is already there)

I know there's another hole or two closer to me, but it
would still be in the pass leg area, (wouldn't it ???)
so I'd prefer something closer to me, but where I DO NOT have
to go for adding additional wiring to the standard Diablo Switch.

Anyone got a cool easy location for me
You know I love pictures

If you open your glove box there is a little space to the right of the glove box. I drilled a hole in it and mounted the switch in that space. Now you just open the glove box and the swith is right in that spot.

Excellent Idea's and Pic's, THANKS GUYS

I really like the Ashtray Racer (nice placement) does the ashtray
go back in afterwards ??? And do you have to ad wire ?

The upper console is awesome Kimball, love that but would def go for the LED if I was gonna go through the trouble of re-wiring.

Speedin Bob is on the Money too, I like that.
I'm gonna go out there in a few minutes, either the
glove compartment or I think Doug got "THE SPOT" for me,
maybe I won't have to Streeeeeeeeeeeeeeetch all the way over
to where it is now, and loose vision of the road when I need to switch on the fly


Plus I think that little 100 watt amp + sub thingy I got will help keep the kids foot from that area

It has just enougth wire to make it. I have it to where front is street and back is race so if i ever put a drink in my cup holder it wont bump the switch.It is very easy to switch on the fly when you want too. The ashtray goes in and out so the switch is hidden too

This is where mine is located. Picture makes it look big, but you can not see it unless you are on your knees. Easy to change on the fly and never hit it accidentally.
