I picked up a Curt brake controller last week at a local Advance Auto that is closing down, 80% off !! I wasn't ready to add a brake controller yet to the truck, but for that deal I had to snag one. I've sat in the bench seat and tried to "feel" where the controller would feel most accessible, should the need to ever arise that I would need to hit the 'oh crap' emergency button.

My truck is an '88 so it's the very squared off shaped. Being a manual trans and I've adapted an OE folding cup holder to work on the dash, I'm only seeing a small space between the trans shifter and the ash tray as a place to mount this controller.

Where have you guys and gals mounted your brake controller?

I use a strong strip of Velcro so I can move the controller between vehicles, avoid drilling holes, and not have the controller installed all the time. I use a Prodigy controller.
