Do you have any problem accidentally hitting any switches when you grab the handle? Is it easy to install?

No. It’s higher than where your hand grabs. It would have been very easy, had I not needed to move things around that were in the way, and if it was warmer than 15 degrees. In a garage, it would have been very easy.

Thanks for the info, this is looking like the best option so far. I'm going to look into it further.

I’ve also now proven that you can just use the accessory outputs’ positive terminal, if your accessory is already grounded. I have a set of KC Flex era 4 lights that have amber markers and main lights, but the harness only has one shared ground, which I already had in place. I didn’t want to move the marker lights, but wanted the main lights on the new voswitch. I just connected the positive lead for the lights and it worked fine. I was initially worried that the voswitch would want to see a full circuit, but it probably still does. I’m guessing all the negative terminals are bridged together to the main negative input for the control box.

OP take a look at the Garmin Powerswitch, I added one to mine and its completely blue tooth so no need for interior switches.

Put mine under the factory light switches. This switch pros operates lights only so it is a fitting location.

the real question is what switch option are you going with. Between switch pros, voswitch, regular toggles, etc...theres a lot of options. It also depends on how much you want to spend. Some options have multiple mounting location possibilities, other options only have one or two mounting location options.

Did you 3D print that enclosure?

Did you 3D print that enclosure?

no it came with the sqitch pros system. I am not sure if its still manufactured or not Anymore. If you look close at my build photos I think it shows an engraving of the company that makes it.

I put a flat piece of plastic over the cubby hole and mounted two switches there . I have room for a couple of more.

Maybe try something like this.

THIS! These are great! No reaching down trying to find the switchs.
I had the factory AUX switches in my first Gladiator. I would take these any day over the factory switches

How much space is under the main connection unit in the engine bay? Enough for one of those cool AmFib Snorkel things?
