I put mine inthe ashtray, right where the lightbulb goes, the switch fit in perfectly without cuting drilling or anything, just stuck it in and its held in the plastic braket without problems, then I put the ashtray over it and this hides the switch. The ashtray doesn't snap all the way down, which is perfect since it makes removing it perfect

Mine was under under the console, but I moved it to the ashtray. I put it on the bottom part, and the ashtray won't sit flush..so I'm going to redo it one of these days.
