The 2015's and up are hard, not a lot of good places because there are THINGS behind the panels. Here is where I'm putting 3 of mine, this is the opening so far for 3 rockers:

I am planning to install 4 of these in the vertical space above the center console.
I am going to paint them to match the gray plastic.

This is what I am using for inspiration.

i assume this is what you're referring to:

Exactly, don't see why that console wouldn't work. If that isn't feasible I'll most likely fit the superduty switches somewhere kinda like this

wow I like that a lot. i wonder if there is enough room to fit that switch panel between the 4wd switch and the trailer brake control like was done here.

@4x4:

I like that look and position a lot. Was there not room to do it under the 4 wheel control on the driver side?

I am going to take a guess that we don't have any pass-through wires such as the raptors do do we? What I'm talking about can be seen in this thread about wiring up the aux switches in a ford raptor. Looks so easy even i can do it! Unfortunately I don't believe we are this luck.

as this is from the 2017 F250 its doubtful that you'll be able to buy the parts for a while yet

Looks like you'll have to fabricate that yourself. But it is nice. I'd even do this on my truck if someone could fabricate it for me...
