I am in the same boat. I just ordered a RH cage and now I have to move my switches.

But since I already have the switches and relays, I only needed a mounting solution. So I went with the SPOD bezel. Yes it was $100, but it will take 6 switches and the Genesis G Screen and is designed to mount easily in the JK and clear the RH cage. Not cheap but a good solution.

I also have the lower dash panel with a few switches.

I am spending tomorrow removing the a pillar pod and Smitty overhead console (w/CB) and re-wiring everything to get ready for the cage which should be here Monday.

Well let me know what u end up doing it may go with something on the bottom roll bar all my switchs are fancy and horizontal from having the piller. I was thinking this or a project box and doing my own thing so I can have them the way I want well see what happens.

As I said I needed to move my A pillar switches to make room for the cage. I purchased the switch housing (bezel) only from SPOD because it fits nicely between the visors, clears the RH cage, also made for the Genesis G-Screen and the holes are pre-punched. I also purchased new switch rockers - with the legends in the right direction.

I just installed a Poison Spyder Trail Cage in mine and went with the sPOD with the touch screen. I mounted it right to my new roll bar. That's the best thing about the new touch screen. You can mount it anywhere you like!

The bezel install was easy. It has a bracket that mounts to the footman loop in the center of the windshield frame and then the bezel (box) mounts to the bracket. The hardest part is getting all the wires up there and hiding them behind the trim. And I mounted the CB to the center section of the cage with some self drilling screws. However, it does hang a little lower than I like - I'm not sure if I will leave it there or not.

What did you use to mount that to the cage? I need to mount my Traildash.
