Got the HKS Type whatever on the steering column, though I'm thinking of putting it out of the way to clean it back up.

Right now I have my Blitz Timer on my steering column until I get a boost controller then I will mount them both under my CD player.

Mine's an old-school greddy timer, and I mounted it upwards underneath by the hood release by the crotch vent (sorry for the vague description)

Imagine...

your right knee and how it could - lack of a better description - bump the underdash kinda under the wiper control.

Mine is right under the steering wheel in the air vent that is located between your legs. It fits very nicely.

I have mine in the crotch AC vent...just pop it out (the vent that is) and slide your TT in there...you will probably need to put some velcro on the TT so it will fit snuggly but it does fit nice and is out of the way...

And NO removing the crotch AC vent doesn't make your ***** boil up like everyons says it does...My ***** are fine, thank you.
