Default switch plates? where to mount a switch.

So I ordered a Line lock, kill switch, nitrous solenoid, and fan switch. Where are you guys putting this ****? I'm not putting it on the kick panel.
I have a 2001 TA, on the center console, up front by the radio and cig lighter, there is a little doorless cubby about as wide as an ipod, does anyone have any ideas?

I made my own. Used the stock TCS panel. Nitrous activation, bottle heater & purge. But there was enough room to put (2) more switches in had I not had the purge button placed where it is. Without the purge you can see there was room for another set of of switches.

Line lock circuit activation and momentary switch are in the ashtray and SLP fan switch is in the open switch blank above the radio in my Camaro. I think Nitrous Dave's has switch plates that fit the little cubby area or in the ash tray. I know I've seen a few different setups that look pretty nice.

Here's another option if you want something custom.

This is my 'Bear' custom fabricated switch panel for console. I have incorporated my Nitrous on/Off switch, Bottle Heater Switches, Nitrous Purge, Bottle Pressure Gage, SLP Manual Fan Switch, and Line Loc all in one panel.

He can make just about anything you want custom as long as it fits in area, using custom engraved text that you specify and even text in colors. All switches were included (except I switched out the Line Loc switch since his was a momentary and I wanted On/Off), and are of high quality.

I also had him make up another panel of my design that fits in console glove compartment under the coin holder that houses my Oil Cooler Fan switch and Tranny Cooler Fan Switch (sorry no pics of that yet)

It's a shift boot from a 2002 Grand Am - fits perfectly at bottom, fits in heigth dimension if the shifter is shortened as mine is when I added the aftermarket shift ****.

I did the write-up on this and it is in the Appearance Hall of Fame 'Stickies' above ^^^^^^
