headlight dipper switch

hi, this may seem like a dumb question but when running a manual with a auto floor hump where do you mount the dipper switch as there's not much room left. any ideas/ pic's would be great as my only idea at the moment is to move the pedals right so theres enough room on the floor on the left hand side for the switch. not sure how hard it'd be but would like to know others solutions before i go wrecking anything.
thanks, L&K

Leave the pedals where they are and move the dip switch.
Is you switch a, through the floor variety, or does it mount inside the cabin only?

i haven't got one yet thommo.
there are screw holes on the floor directly under the clutch pedal which i can't fit it there.
with the car going from auto to manual i'm having trouble finding space for it.
