Default where to mount my boost controller

I need some ideas. I want to mount it and make it easily viewed while driving, but have it look clean yet inconspicuous for theives.

It's pretty small, but I don't have any of the obvious spots that the 6th gens do. Any ideas? I don't have the A/V console cause I like my cup holders, but I may need to get one I suppose.

I have the Greddy ProfecB spec2.

Thanks!

you mean right in the center? I've seen a VAFC mounted there and I really didn't like it. Also, if I had to quickly switch to high boost, that'd be kinda hard to get my arm up there...

I'd really rather not cut into anything either, but I know that's kinda hard to avoid. This is my dilemma... :happysad:

I've actually seriously considered that... seems like the only place.

Finding an interior image now.

what about in front of the vent on the left side of the wheel? or down and in front of the 2 vents on the right side.

I thought about putting it where the buttons are on the left... hmm... I wonder if it'd fit in the mirror control slot. h:

Prolly too small... I'd put it above that, but I have my JDM coinholder there and I'm not cutting that up. :nono:

It'd be too obvious sitting on top of the dash so I'm not putting it there. Why couldn't it have just come with one stock so I could swap it out. :chuckles:
