The carling are too big the body doesn't fit yet alone the retainer clips .I'm led to believe Patrols tojo's and Mitso's are all in the same dilemma and when I want to use 3 switches in the console will look like a 5 year old has been let loose.
U have 4 choices in life :U can like it; lump it; love it or shove it, take your pick and stick to it !

is this in a GQ centre console?? i can confirm that your advice is wrong 100% i have 4 Carling switches across the middle of the centre of my GQ and 3 more down the left side where the left ahnd drive hand brake would be. Happy to get you some pics or have a look in my build thread.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever. WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.

If its a GU i dont think youll get 3 in side of the centre console.
Ive installed 1 and had to cut a tiny bit of plastic to install it and even then it doesnt sit flush. My guess is itll be the same for where youre asking about putting them. You may have to do some trimming of the plastic surroundings.
G’day DT mate! Be careful listening to MudRunnerTD, he’ll turn your truck full comp worthy for sure:-)
Still take a little loved one/s out and about sometimes in the ute and dogs also love to jump inside at home too! I keep all my serious switches away from their shaningans:-)
I have the same type of switch as MB in my GU's centre console. I made up a new mounting plate from some perspex I had and secured it in using the old plate. Issue is the rockers break off easily there from having the likes of charge cables that get hooked in behind the rocker. Now I need to find a new spot for winch isolator and in/out switch.

On the dash in arms reach for sure mate. As close to steering wheel as possible, I stuffed up and put mine a little far away but will redo near the dash cluster
