Default Where do you guys mount your "command center"?

I'm talking about switches, basically.

For my 660 Grizzly, I have my winch relay switch mounted on the LF plastic piece (black) in front of the shifter. Heated hand/thumb grips switch is mounted on that black plastic piece in the center of the handlebars.

Winch raise/lower (Warn rocker) is mounted on left handlebar above the headlight switch. I guess most guys have stuff all over the place like this? I also want to add aux. driving lights & rear lights, and a couple other things.


I was thinking of some type of "command center" plate where everything could be mounted neatly in one area. Anyone have a neat setup they would like to share?

Most of the time the winch contact/command center is mounted behind the winch on the mounting plate.
You can check with the guys at http://grizzlyriders.com for more info on the 660 if you like.

Thanks Dodge -

That is a cool forum. I will browse through the threads to get some ideas for mods I want to do.

Also, what I meant by a command center was something like a panel where all switches/controls could be mounted on, like a row of toggles in a race car, etc.

This is the old style command center for my Vinson....made using pvc tubing, elbows, and conduit. I now have a pair of them running on either side of the stock headlight pod, and they control auxiliary lights and the winch.
