Cut out switch

MSA regs for stage rally cars say that there must be an electrical circuit breaker which both crew members can access when strapped in.

OK, but where to put it?

On the dashboard maybe but that seemed to me to be quite a stretch.

Then I had a thought - how about using a centre arm rest? I have a spare one so that's what I have looked at. I have removed the padded top to reveal the steel "lid" below.

I reckon that when I get the car back I will be able to fit the circuit breaker to the top of the "armrest" along with, in due course, the pull switch for the plumbed in extinguisher that will be needed.
