Default Antenna Switch

For those of you with C4's and a seperate antenna switch, where did you mount the switch at? The radio reception around here is great so I don't really need the antenna up much. I was thinking inside the console somewhere, but I am open to suggestions.

Where'd you get the switch as well?

I have a C5 but this may help. I Bought a 1" angle bracket ( smaller the better )from HomeDepo and a mini single pull switch from radio shack that would mount into the hole in the angle bracket. then cut off the first screw hole in the bracket to make it smaller. mount the switch in the remaining hole then mount it under the dash. In the C5 there is a black screw just above the drivers right knee that worked great. Hope this helps. one hour time, 4.00 cost.

I've got an 88 and this is one of the first things I did since i never listen to the radio anymore. I just drilled a hole in the black plastic panel under the dash. It's out of sight and does the job. Since it's between the stereo's "antenna-on" line and the antenna, the antenna behaves normally if the switch is on. If the switch is off, the antenna stays down.
