Hi guys,
First post here. Just passed 500 miles on the new truck, getting ready to tow the race car up to Nor. Cal. for a race this weekend.

I have a Tekonsha Prodigy electric brake controller that I've been very happy with, and need to figure out where to mount it. On my old truck ('99 F150) it was under the dash on the left side, and I banged my knee more than once getting in/out.

I'm looking for an ingenious place to put the brake controller in the new rig that won't cause ingress/egress problems but still have it within reach for manual trailer brake application. Anybody have clever solutions or suggestions, or simple placements you've been happy with? Pics would be appreciated too.

Thanks in advance!

I removed the screw that mounts the lower part of the dash. Bottom right, under the ashtray.

I then used the screw to mount my controller. I have NEVER bumped my knee on it. It is in reach if i need to manually hit the trailer brakes.

Hope this helps, if you would like a pic, let me know

See my picture gallery for where I mounted mine. (it is still waiting approval, so it may take a day or so before it's in there)

I mounted mine in the cubby under the HVAC controls. This will only work if you have one

I also mounted mine in the same area as Supergewl and Pull U 2, I have yet to have any problems with it mounted there.

Mine same as Dodgedude, I didnt like it at first but it works good, is easy to get at when you need to, and I never bump my knees on it

Mine is located at the bottom of the knee panel, on the right side above the go-pedal. It looks like it is in the way, but I've yet to hit it.

Mine is mounted same as Supergewl, Pull U 2 and charcoal600. On the lower right side on the knee panel. Easy to reach and have not hit it yet...
