Accessory Switch Mounting
#31
For those of you that do not have the trailer brake controller, two Contura marine switches with the mounting boxes fit perfectly in that location. I just removed the storage bin that was there and then the switches just snapped right in. Simple to pop back out should you need to or want to change anything. There is a slight gap between the switches, but the angle of the dash, you really don't notice it. You actually don't really notice the switches at all, looks much better in person then the picture.
Wide range of switches

That looks great, I 'm trying to find a spot that is not there for my switches. I have something in the trailer brake spot already.
was there anything behind this spot, I'm looking to mount smaller switches but trying to find the best place

There is two layers of plastic, but I used my roto tool to cut a opening just big enough for the switch not the switch housing. I then glue each swith housing together and on to the dash. But if need the switch itself will come out of the housings.
