Default Custom switch panels

I am adding switches for my intercooler pump, line lock, fuel pump, and 2-step and I am curious as to where some of you guys have your switches at in your car. The nitrous express switch panel inside the charging port door is pretty cool but I use that charging port a good bit so that option is out for me. I was contemplating putting it all behind the radio screen, but I feel like that would be a little inconvenient to turn off the line lock in the middle of a burnout with the switches inside there. I really want to keep a clean factory look for the interior if at all possible. If any of you guys have switch panels, could you please post them up!?

I've not done so for the C7, but I have for lots of others. For essentially a street car and not full-time racer I'd put them in the cup holder compartment. If a full-time racer, all that matters is that they are within easy reach AND not in the way of an emergency suited-exit. All the best.

I contacted a local high end body shop to make something for me. They directed me to Painless Performace switches and also put me in touch with a custom automotive electronics shop. In the end, they built me a badass switch panel.

DTOM, any pics of your setup?

I like the cup holder idea but I use my cup holders. Lol
