kawa has a good reputation on FTE. kawa has a good reputation on FTE.
I installed mine in the driver's door arm rest. I like it, it's convenient but I would have to think long and hard before I did it again as it is a Royal Pain in the A$$ to thread that cable through all of the nooks and crannies that it must go.

DZL JIM is gaining momentum as a positive member of FTE.
DP Tuner does not have a rotary knob like all the others.
They have a square digital switch with a square, flat wire connection in the back. It can be quite a pain to mount, not like drilling a hole for the other rotary switches.
But DP Tuner have some trick mount options if you check them out.

On my OBS, I mounted mine in the black dash strip to the left of the steering wheel. I notched the edge of the black strip to allow the flat wire to fit between the strip and the dash (in the crack) and just drilled a big hole behind the strip to feed the wire up through. You'll never see that hole with the strip on it.
Clear as mud?
