I used the cover in the dash that covers where the speaker controller thing usually is as I didnt want to chop my dash about, and they look pretty factory if I do say so myself 
You can get two little switches in that panel
P.S - why do you want to run a dump valve on that awesome car? Running cossie management the chatter would sound sweet!!!
dont do the chump valve mate!

you dont need a dump valve controller to turn off a dump valve.
If you've got a spare amal valve lying around you can do it.
I have some pics of the switches in my old rs turbo I'll dig em out...

The blue bit with the symbols on light up when you turn the lights on (dash lit switches) the top blue bits light up when the switch is in the on position.

They were quite big but they were most customisable switches I could find. And they didnt look too bad in the car.
Fitted em about a year ago but took em back out about 3 months later when I started breaking it up for spares.
