I recently purchased a Redarc trailer brake controller and I'm trying to figure out a good place to mount it. Does anybody have a good spot in mind? It's the controller that has the dial on it. I would like to have mounted it on the blank panel beside the 2nd start switch, but the steering column bracket is in the way. Below is what it looks like without the "TRAILER BRAKE" bezel.

I have the same controller and same dilemma. I'm coming from a 5th gen 4Runner and had it mounted in a blank spot to the left and down from the steering column. Didn't realized till yesterday that there are no openings anywhere.

There's a guy that makes 3D printed inserts to replace the vestigial suspension control panel but I don't really want it in such a prominent location, since I don't adjust it that often.

Considering getting something 3D printed to replace the ash tray, or replace the adjacent 12v socket. Would be neat to have the controller behind that panel where it won't get bumped.

That would be awesome. I think a buddy of mine has a friend that does some 3d printing. I'll give him a shout. Right now I have the dial in the switch hole for the 2nd set of tires (no idea what it's actually called).
