I've been pondering over it it and I really am not a fan of putting screws anywhere in the dash.

How are you guys set up?

Mine has long enough wire I always just sat it in the center console. Did not bother mounting it for the little time that I use it.

I would recommend putting it in the cubby hole. You wouldn't be putting holes in the dash and you wouldn't see those holes.

DON'T mount it in the center console!

If you trailer starts to get away from you, you won't be able to open the console and hit the manual button fast enough to control the trailer.

Mount it in the cubby hole if you have one, or by your right knee on the lower dash where you can get to it quickly!

I mounted my Prodigy down there, and remove the controller when I'm not using it. Takes all of 45 seconds to mount or remove it.
