   Just do what I did, drill 3 small holes in the panel by your knees as yous sat in the car, not visable unless you use illuminated switches.
   
   The panel is easy to remove and if you ever want it standard again (without holes) then just go to a scrappy and give them a £5 note for a new one without holes!
   
   Perfect place tbh
   
   if you wanna see piccys then im sure there is some, somewhere on my thread!

    What i did before was mount them in the coin tray and i had a fake leather lid whick sat on top of them hiding the buttons. So when you wanted to use them you lift up the lid first.

    I know you don't want them on show but how about using the blanks on the dash above the stereo? Easy to remove and put a switch or button into them and easy wiring straight behind the dash.

    Could you run some wires into the door and put your switches in the door pocket because we seem to have exhausted all other options.
    
    Just a thought, i once made an imobilizer for my old Nova SR (bless it) from a relay and a magnetic (AKA reed) switch from a door on a house alarm system. I mounted the switch behind dashboard and then ran a magnet over the top of the dash to activate it. The relay energised and then kept itself locked in until ignition was turned off. I liked it because it was not seen.
