I just finished this up and thought it turned out good so I figured I'd share. Let me start off by saying I'm very happy with the controller overall, mounting options not so much. I've had the bronco on the road for a year now and the controller has just been hanging under the dash with 4' of extra wiring coiled up on the trans hump. With wiring coming out of three sides it's not easy to mount it and not see the wiring. I also needed a place for two gauges so here's what I came up with.

That looks really good. Makes me think I need to redo my setup mad: Are those JB cable twin sticks? I like your center console also. Is that one you fabricated or other?

Very nice! I like how you matched the shape and look of it to the lines of the dash.

Thanks for the compliments! Those are JB cable twin sticks and I'm extremely happy with them! They work great and the mounting options are endless. I built the console also.

Hey Bigmuddy, I apologize for not posting those dimensions for the console, completely slipped my mind. It is 10" wide and 33"long.
