Try your flip up penny tray right behind the shifter (on an M6). Or next to your cig lighter to the left (it'll be a deep pocket for like change and stuff UNLESS you have TCS).

The one I like the best is a small square piece of sheet metal to fit over the metal part of the ash tray and mount the switch on that, you can then close the ash tray lid and no one knows its there.

That's what I was going to do. I have a new vert/tcs panel with a new tcs switch sitting in the garage somewhere if somebody wants to try that route.

Not for electric cutouts, but here are my switches (in case they give you any ideas)

Putting a green on the left side today...but it's empty at the moment


It's dirty and needs cleaned

I find the foglight, ASR, TCS, etc. switches and wire them up into the radio bezel. Kind of like Strahley's but it gives it the stock look. Some of them are momentary switches but if you take it apart and bend the tab you can make it an on/off switch. Currently I just have the stock foglights of course and wired up my amp, but going to be putting my line lock switch there also. Probably put my manual fan switch by the seat switches like Jimmyblue since it'll be more hidden, can use the supplied switch, and I won't use it much anyways. Just keeps it looking stock, just don't forget which switches are for what lol.

I've got the TCS switch. GM Parts Direct sent me the wrong 'vert switch when I was ordering them and I can't send it back. Looks like it's for a different car. I'll PM you a price.
