Hard wiring in an Escort: where's the best place for the wiring, mute module, etc?
I got a hardwire kit for my Escort, which will be clipped to my sunvisor. The wiring "harness" has a mute button assembly. I'm mulling over options as to where to mount it. I'm trying to find a place that will be hidden (glove box or ashtray?), or inconspicuous, and not involve a lot of cutting and rooting around for + and - wires. Anybody else put one of these in? How do you like the location you chose?
Pics would be nice.
Thanks
Thaddeus

I have the same set-up. I hardwired it to the sunroof switch and put mute button just above those switches and below the astray - velcroed to the top of the switch housing.
If I can remember, I will take photos this evening.

Here is a pic of the mute control placement above the switch console... plus an obligatory side pic.

sweet car! I love the silver.
I'm still thinking about hiding the mute button in the ashtray... I'll be scoping it out some more later tonight...
The ashtray is the one factory-installed feature that's never going to be used in my car anyway. Might as well use it for something...
