I actually cut a flap in my tunnel that I can fold down to get to it without
dropping the tranny.  I was having issues with it and it's nice to be able
to access it so easily.

Some at least aren't symmetrical - the OD switch points backwards, is 
pretty-well right at the top and above a jutting-out piece of the casting. 
The reverse-light switch points sideways, lower down, and much easier to get

grips on.

I've not had to change either, but even getting to the spades on the OD 
switch needed the rear crossmember dropping on a jack, the centre cubby 
removing, tunnel carpet pulled back, and the little (4-synch) removable 
panel ... removed.
