I pretty sure you can take the top part of the cousel out, but if that doesn't work the you will have to take the whole center counsel out. i haven't done this mod yet but i am planning on it in the near future. I think i am going to go this route tho. https://ls1tech.com/forums/appearance-detailing/1009544-f-body-switch-plates-available-preorder-now.html
A switch for fan, cutout, and linelock in black acrylic instead of the mirrored.
This is the site i got the picture from and how im going to wire it up instead of buying the kit. http://www.evlls1.com/installs/coolingfan.html
