Manual Fan Switch owners inside.

Where are you guys mounting them. On the site that show how to do it, the guy mounts it under his cigarette lighter. But i can't put mine there because my traction control button takes up that spot. Where else are you mounting them. Also the ash tray light in the car is it supposed to turn off? Because mine is on the whole time when my headlights are on, and it gets very hot. I would think that it would only turn on when i open the tray. I'm thinking of removing the light and putting the switch in the ash tray. Do you think that would be a good spot?

Well i have a 94 T/A, so I mounted mine next to the "1 2 3 4 5 6 R" thing. I have a friend with a 97 camaro and he mounted his switch and 2 LED's to the right of the cigarette lighter, is that space free?

Nope that spots not free. The 97's got a different interior. I have a big hole to the right of my lighter.

Yes, there is where I have the switch for the remote bottler opener for the nitrous.

The little 123456 R thing I grinded a hole there for an illuminated rocker switch for my nitrous arm. To the right of that I mounted the two rocker switches for the fans. I put a switch for each fan.

I mounted mine right next to the ash tray. Though it does get mistaken for a NX switch often

I probably would have mounted mine under the cig lighter too but I had already wired a switch for my stereo amps there
