Agree with having a hardwired switch in addition to a remote, but I threw away the switch that came in the box. Beyond the club store, search the net and you'll find a lot of backlighted rocker switch options under $10. Best to use a fuse box or inline fuse.
Find a nice spot on the dash and make sure there's clearance behind. I cut the rectangle with a utility knife, hooked up the wires, and snapped it in place. Works great.
