I have a 2017 silverado with 4wd so cannot mount the button on a tow pro elite by the light switch do you have other suggestions on where to mount it?

The great thing about the Tow-Pro Elite # RED44FR is it's versatility when it comes to choosing a location to install the control knob. Since the control knob is smaller and the box that it connects to learns the direction of travel as you drive you can virtually mount it anywhere.
If you check out the attached picture and installation video you can see that we mounted it in the center console for one application. If you would like a clean looking installation you can use the mounting panel # 331-TPSI-003 or # 331-TPSI-001. I just recommend putting it somewhere that is comfortable for you took reach without taking your focus off driving.
