i voted middle panel,but dude come on. there are a million and ahalf threads about switches and switch panles where people put them. if you searched do it again untill you find something.its out there.

i put my antenna switch underneath the steering wheel...if you look there's two rectangle pieces that can pop out. the little black switch i used fits perfectly there.
What's the toggle switch for? If it's something not used often, like something to change alarm settings, I'd put it inside the glovebox. Above the glovebox, under the dash would work well for a fairly hidden switch if your friends are easily entertained by toggle switches. tongue.gif

New Toyota project coming soon...
For that switch I would put it some place easy to reach, I did not like it down on the kick plate. its kinda a big switch though, you might want to replace it, I think one with a little LED to show that its on would be cool.
thanks guys for the suggs...

i like your idea chris.....

it is a toggle switch that i'll be using quite a bit...on/off

...think LED by the window control...that's my vote...what do you think?

out-

NOOOOO... i must put in my 2 cents.... you need to turn your ciggarette lighter into a switch... and when you push it in - current flows, when you pull it out - current is blocked..... my dad converter the lighter into a switch on my old 94 celica- it was pretty pimp biggrin.gif
I just have to show off:

^ yeah I like that.

do you have a stock alarm, how about putting the switch on that little plasic peace there the stock alarm LED is, just pop out that peace and drill a hole and place the switch, its deff not perminate if you ever want to take it out, and its kinda hidden if you want that too.
I still vote the AC vent spot, there's a button at Autozone that fits there perfectly. When I finally pick some fogs that's where my button will be

not bad.
same place i put all my switches, but i glassed over the cig lighter and the hole and i have 1-round switch for my underbodies, 1-round switch for my police strobes with a small momentary button to change the pattern. next im getting about 3 small toggles to use for other neons.
