you can mount it on the steering column infront of the speedo and tach on the outside of the clear plastic cover, someone on here has done it and it looked awsome. but i like it where you dont want it to be thats the koolest and most perfect spot for it in my opinion.

i was thinking it would look really good on the drivers side pillar as well right on the corner of the dash above the ac vent. however a trim peice would need to be fabricated.

No need to lose the tcs and fog switches.
Just relocate them


Here is a link to the LS1 scanmaster manual (the site is down right now)

Sorry to bump an old thread but I have just a regular Camaro so all that little plaque says is Camaro. No loss there. Could I pop that out and cut out behind that for the scanmaster? It'd be easier than relocating my fog light switch(not that it's THAT hard). Is there anything behind that plaque?

That's because Ramchargers is no longer in business I think.

Nevermind on my question. I guess I should check for myself before asking such a stupid question lol.

Here's a legit question though. How much cutting/dremeling do you have to do?
