Parking Brake Location Ideas

I installed mine attached and above to the center bracket for the rudder peddles and the cable comes right to my panel.

Another possible and good location is right behind the subpanel where the brake hoses are suppose to turn downward to the tunnel. The only negative part about this location is that in most cases there is good bit of wiring for crossing this section. Mine has worked flawlessly so far.
 
Upper left of the panel because that is where you tend to look, especially on a taildragger.

Control cable on the left side of panel. Switch was wired into the Dynon panel to give an alarm when brake was not fully in the off position.
