Default jimmy jams panel mounting

I was just wondering what you guys are using to hold the switch panel in place. I have just begun rewiring my nitrous system, and I cannot get the panel to stay down in the ashtray. What do you guys recomend?

You have to be sure you push it down real hard so it snaps into place. If there is still a problem, just send me your phone number so Jimmy can talk to you on the phone about it. :-)

I had to use 3 small screws, large thread used on RC Cars. I modified my Jimmy Jams panel though and put the NX Bottle opener switch in it. See the pic.

Send me your phone number so Jimmy can call you to talk to you about it (he doesn't do the internet/email). You can order one through us if needed for a few bucks. Email me at rocookie@yahoo.com about it.
