They don't come out its all one piece. I put mine in the centre console in front of the gearshift, I have seen one at the back and one in the LH side of the gearshift. But be carful make sure you have room under the control knob before you drill the holes.

Behind each of the blanks is a full circuit board. They are not just a empty blank, see attached link for placement of my controller on a 2012.

Thanks for the info.
I worked out how to pull the front and centre console off and found out about the printed circuit boards.
I mounted the remote as suggested on the centre console just in front of the terrain option, LHS near cup holder. It was the only guaranteed option. others places were to risky.
I mounted the controller in front of the gear stick under the cubby.
All good except!
1) What wire do i pick up for the brake signal. I know its on the brake pedal but which one?
Thanks again for everyones help

Hi murrayinoz1 glad you got the Tow Pro in the consol its a good spot because you or the passenger can reach it in an emergency. Can't help with the wires as mine was done by others
