    Default Relocate Ballast Switches?

    I hate the factory location of the ballast switches on my 2006 LSV. You have to crane your neck down and look right to see where you have them set. Has anyone relocated these? I am thinking of moving them to the flat area just above the armrest. Any other suggestions?

    Thanks,

    I too hate the location! For one it's too easy to forget your adding/draining ballast!

    very poorly designed. depending on where your seat is they are also very hard to get at. whats the deal with that? how hard would it have bein to put them on the dash or something like every other manufacturer?

    Default Couldn't take it any more

    I am in the process of relocating the ballast switches to right above the arm rest. I'll post some pics tonight.

    Now I've got to figure out what to cover up the big hole with where it was previously located.

    Can't wait to see that!

    I hate the location of the switches. The 2nd day I owned the boat I somehow triggered the switch on just before leaving to go home. It takes 5mins to fill so I didn't see the overflow.

    I got a phone call from the marina saying my bilge pump was constantly on. That made so sense so I knew it was the ballast pump. Grrrrr!

    Default Ballast Switches

    Nice job!! I have an 05 Mobius lsv and installed my own rear ballast system but used radio shack switches temporarily. I will locate them to underneath the wake gauge there is just enough room for 2 switches. I will leave the factory single ballast bag switch for the ski locker bag. Jim .
