Any good ideas on where to mount the Ramco mirror controller switch with doing the least amount of damage? I was thinking just forward of the height controller panel on the drivers side panel.
Any other ideas?
Thanks, scott

Scott,
That is where we and others mount them.
Yes it will leave a hole, but the cotrolller will stay on there for a long
time , so we feel it is not a bad place.

Scott,
If you look at the following picture you will notice the location of the
Mirror controls to the left of the steering wheel just in front of the
electrolevel control switches..

Thank you Chuck and Jon.
Jon, that is where I thought it would be the most logical place to mount it. I only have one switch with a L/R toggle.
Chuck, I will look that person up to pass my old panel to. But I'm still waiting to hear anything back from Keith V. about his system to replace my old one with.. it's been a month with at least 3 emails out, and none back. Maybe I have a incorrect email for Keith........
Thanks,
Scott.

Clasco mounted the two controls (R/L) for the Ramcos on my coach at the top of the removable filler panel which goes across beneath the steering wheel, and positioned them below the headlight switch. I'd say it's a little low, but it's out of the way and the wiring is easy to get to and it was easy for them to install.

They should 'fall readily to hand' as the Brit car magazines used to say. Mine's cut into the horizontal panel just ahead of the armrest.
