Default Best Position for Toggle Switch for Diff Cooler?

I'm having the Doug Rippie diff cooler installed on my '02 Z06 and wondered where you all recommend having the on/off toggle switch mounted?
Thanks!

Thank you both for the feedback/pictures. It looks like people have their own favorites switch type and set-up wise. I was leaning towards a toggle switch because I thought it might be easier to work with gloves on and also be able to see if it was on or off more readily?
