Default Best location for mounting switches??

2010 Unlimited Rubicon. I have 3-4 switches I need to mount. I saw a panel that fits in the lowest portion of the console below the ventilation controls. Any other convenient options out there?? I use the little bungee mesh that came in that location to hold my phone, ipod and work ID, so I kinda hate to lose it.........

rumor is correct. was supposed to be out by this month but it looks like it'll be just a bit longer. it's a great solution and one that's affordable and looks factory.

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.
