Bass Control Knob Placement

[Fenix]

Where did you guys put the Subwoofer bass control knob? I was looking at placing it in the open area under the toggles, or the under side of the dash in the foot well. Both places seem like a pain to get to so I'm wondering if there is an easier route.

I installed mine below and to the right of the steering wheel. This is a small panel that looks like it has a vent built in Maybe 4" x 6". Pops right off. I removed the volume control from its housing, drilled a small hole and in she goes. I also mounted a toggle switch there for my in grille driving lights.

Wow thanks for the idea! That panel was really easy to pop off and there is enough room for everything behind there

here's where I put mine, had no use for the port since I did the dual port in the console, so I mounted my bass control knob there, its clean and out of the way

That looks real nice, does the console have to come out to get it in there?

Underside of steering column here. Very easy to get to and I haven't hit it with my leg. So far so good.

Put mine in the sunglasses drawer. Hidden and ready when you need it. Don't accidentally push the trunk button. Did that once and had to pull over. lol

Okay I may be acting overly cautious, but just how hard is it to pop the small panel? Does another panel have to come off before? I moved the steering wheel as far down as possible and tried prying the top left corner with my finger but it doesn’t feel like it’s budging. Don’t wanna break any clips. Any help is appreciated. Would really like my knob there.

Im the laziest of all. I velcro'd mine to the console between ebrake and console. I can adjust while moving minimal muscles. Also, when I sell car, all can be removed with no evidence.

Tried to do this in the footwell with some cheap double sided tape. I guess cheap is the keyword there because fell off a couple days later. May have to pick up some quality velcro and wipe it down with an alcohol pad or something before. thanks for the idea

Looks great!!! That’s the little panel I had trouble getting off. Guess I’ll just have to try a bit harder. Felt like I was gonna break something
