Put the box somewhere you can easily reach it with you strapped in the car. Also, it needs to be easy to see and somewhere it won't be in direct sun.

The T-brake goes in the transmission....

Just messin' with ya.....my button is on the steering wheel but I assume you have a factory steering wheel and that's why your asking. I'd mount the switch on your dash somewhere convenient. Or to the shifter handle. Dunno.

Console would be a good place for the box if it'll fit. What box are you getting? My Mega 200 *might* fit in the console.

Yep basically, the '68 is a SuperPro bracket car right now but sees some *limited* street duty still. Likely going to a 10.5 tire car next year though.
