Mounting a Bass Control knob
 

Anyone have any resources or guides on how to mount a bass control knob?

This is the knob I bought:
JL Audio RBC-1 Remote bass control for JL Audio amps at Crutchfield.com


I bored out a hole in my middle switch and have it mounted, but it isn't flush and the whole thing looks subpar, it would be awesome if there was a way to get a switch that was flush with the knob where I could glue or bolt in the knob to the switch plate, and then install to the middle position...

Let me know if you've seen any successful installs with this, I am pretty much out of ideas.

Did you pull the JL one apart? Pics of how it turned out might help to see what you did and what you maybe could have done...

Someone on this forum did exactly that and I believe it's in the "What to do with those three blank center buttons" thread or close enough lol. Should be in the interior & exterior section. Anyways it was done with a clean look so maybe you can reference that one.

Ok so it's in exterior & interior instead of the reverse. Here's the thread link http://www.the370z.com/exterior-inte...r-console.html
It's on the first page about half way down. Maybe you can add some type of washer?

You can often adjust the mounting nuts/washers so that less of the shaft sticks out from the panel and the knob will fit closer to the panel.

You may be able to shorten the shaft. A fine-tooth hacksaw and a small vise will work.

This is where I have mine and I love it. If you're like me, you don't want to reach far to adjust it every song.

It attaches using a double sided sticky pad. No drilling.

I have the exact same bass knob.
here is what I did: post 23 on 2nd page

I mounted it lower then the guy who did it before me so it would look a little more clean and oem

id conceal it inside the center console (under the arm rest area).

I had the shop do it that way at first, until I realized I'd have to open the arm rest every time. Plus ur arm is in an awkward position when you adjust it.

yah, i wasnt saying ur way was bad, i dont like dials where i might touch it by accident and mess up the setting. once i have the sub setup, i rarely touch the dial.

idk man I use the dial for every different individual song and song genre.
they all have different bass and Most ppl when they download things there all different qualities sometimes so u need different settings

wow...

i personally listen to music the way it was recorded so once i have that sub freq void filled for the system, i dont mess with the settings and just enjoy the tracks the way it was recorded by its creators.

good point, I'm not saying ur wrong man

a lot of my music was downloaded a long time ago and is crappy, I've got to re download better torrent files but that's usually why I change the EQ all the time.

although sometime I want a lot of bass and sometime I don't.

This is exactly what I want to do....tried and bored the hole way too big. Also, the button didn't really "snap" back in the switch harness when i re-installed it. Could've been fubar'd when taking it out though, I was pretty rough with it.

Any tips for how you stuck the knob inside of the button and got it to stay? Did you glue it, or use the hardware that came with the button? Mine is taped right now...but its more a temporary solution since I am going to redo the button anyways.

Going to see if I can get a blank switch in the classifieds, if not i'll just pick one up from Nissan think they are about $10.
