My small write up not much but here it goes , you have to take off the plastic cover thats under the frame above the valve covers and also raise the tank for more room to work , now you have to pull out all the wires from the hole there is one set that goes to the neck it's a tight space but you have to reach and pull the plug thats the harness ( 3 wires ) thats going to plug right into the ignition switch in the console but you have to cut and add about 8 inches to reach it , the hard part is stuffing the wirings back in the hole at the end , there are alot more tech posts on this forum on how to do it with photos use the search option and you will find them , Sorry i'm keeping my old console i always see them on ebay try there ...

I have seen it done with the SB stock console but don't like how the ignition mount has to be fasten to the console , you have to drill and then have exposed screws on top, the WG console the screws are hidden underneath , but to each is own , good luck with it !

Some have drilled holes, but you can make a bracket that mounts to the tank and the switch mounts to that. I think it was Walter Windbag who originally did the mod using the stock console and it did come out nice. The problem I see is you can't really get rid of all the ribbing on the stock SB console and I have not seen one done up close, one reason I am looking for a console in case I booger it up.

I agree, you definitely went the the right way. I only posted that up because you mentioned drilling the console to mount the switch and seeing the screws, not to mention $200+ is a lot of coin for that console and there is an alternative if one so chooses.
