Where did you mount your indiglo switch?

I was wondering for all those people who have APC Speed-Glo gauges installed, where did you put your indiglo switch box?

I put mine in the change tray. When they blew on me I took them out and put the digital switch of my new gauges in there too. I never use it so I just figured I'd load it up with switches and stuff.

depends on the gauges, the first set I had didn't come with any tape. All it had was the gauges, transformer, and switch. The last set I got had double sided 3M tape. If you are going to do it yourself, put them out without tape. If your needles stick then go get some double sided 3M tape (if the set didn't come with any) and secure the gauges.

It was real easy, I just pulled out the dremel and made a hole at the top of the tray big enough to fit the wire in. Getting it in through the front was a bitch but is possible. Then I just used some glue to hold it in place. On mine the wires to the switch had a connector so you could seperate it. If yours doesn't then I suppose you could just cut the wires, run them through the hole, and then crimp them with some spade connectors.

Do you think that it is possible to take out the change tray so that you wouldn't have to do any drilling?
also, what kind of indiglo gauge do you have?
