on the 1st gen B2 where have y'all put the toggle switches? I gotta find a place to put 3 for lights and 2 on radio amps. I have 3 mounted but not sure if I like the location. Any thoughts or pics of 1st gen b2 or ranger switch locations?
 
I done all mine as the lo-pro rocker switches and put them across the lip on the bottom of the dash panel. You couldn't see them unless you really looked for them.
 
Right now mine are the blue rockers on the lil trim piece to the right of the steering wheel... I was thinking doing the light switches on the left by the headlight switch
 
That would work. I also had some LED lights and a digital readout for my crossover mounted in that trim piece that goes across.
 
Unless I can find a way to do a switch panel I think I'm gonna leave them where they are. 3 on each side of the steering wheel
 
If you dont smoke, you can take out the ashtray and bolt a panel inthere can't you?

spring cleaning means cleaning up my interior and redoing the dash area, to clean up all the wiring.. ham radio, sub bass switch. all that crap..

mine are right above the little light display thingy on the console, that little space between that display and the console lid. i have 1 tcc switch, 2 for my lights, and have room for 1 more for brush guard hella's when i get em. they are easy to get to and out of the way. awesome for my lights in the backwoods because i can hold my arm on the console and work my lights for oncomming cars. i can get u a pic if u want. also if u pull the display out u can easily run the wires and they wont be inside the console

EDIT: u can easily fit 5 toggle type switches with the pole thrower(u know the cheap chrome ones with the pole)
 
if i had a center console that would work...lol. i kinda like my 60/40 seats tho... hard to get rid of them lol. i think i may extend my factory overhead console back with two rows of switches.. i don't use my lights on road a lot.. my headlights please me just fine so getting to them quick is not a problem
