Default Late Night Project "METH CONTROL"

I know most of you have much better setups. However, I was interested in making a clean place for my Meth Controller. This is what I came up with. I didn't do a DIY but I will help answer any questions if someone wants to attempt it. I simply pulled the plastic piece that most of you have for the HUD. I made a few measurements and used a small compact saw, Dremel,"PATIENCE" and once it was snug, double sided tape to secure it. Let me know what you think.

Looks like a great fit! I'd just be worried about accidentally bumping that gain **** with your knee and accidentally changing the settings. Also there's a red light that stays on when the car is on. Hopefully that's not in eyesight or it could get annoying.

Like many others, mine is behind the nav screen but its no cake walk getting it in there, so i completely understand looking for other options. Aside from the 2 issues above (which could completely be non issues) i think it's great!

Thank you very much. I have attached a few pictures. The light is not noticeable at all. I just took a night drive and its completely hidden unless I lean far left like in the picture. I am 6'2 and my knees have about 3 full inches from the highest point I rest my leg.
