What year truck do you have? Do you have the OEM trailer towing package?

You can't plug this into the wrong place. The toughest decisiion is to place the unit.
Do you screw through your nice new dash?
Do you mount it on the bottom of the knee bolster as if you are really going to reach down and hit the panic brake is that situation?
Do you mount it on top (I've seen it)?
I mounted mine exactly where Ken07Harley mounted his. I have other stuff on the tab on the other side.
