Post pics if possible. Mounting battery in rear and looking for ideas on where to place the master cut off switch.

Good idea. Would love to see pics, if you can take some of the inside, where it goes through that would be of great help! Does it cause the license plate to stick way out?

Ok, here is what it looks like from the inside with the plastic covering it. Also note, I have the power motor for the deck lid so that is why the switch is in the location that it is.

Here is where the switch is located from the outside. You will need to trim the tail light a little bit. When I get a new one, I'll make mine look better.

I wanted to make sure mine wasn't visible with the plate up so its just like that except mounted slightly to the right!
