Wow! Thanks everybody!

Lot's of great info to think about for which some I had not considered. And depending on my mood, the foot switch is not a bad idea cause I'm old and still have a few cars with the foot switch.

Guess I will NOT be drilling any holes soon until I can sleep on a few of these suggestions. My dash thanks everyone.....

I think something like this mounted near your headlight switch will be unobtrusive, easily accessed, and not too out-of-place when seen. Bonus: this is a very low-cost solution.

Yea, it requires a hole, but any option that doesn't is going to be something that has a very add-on look, or will cost as much as the OEM switches. The above switches are just a few dollars.
I used one of these that came with my Diode Dynamics light kit. I pulled the center console and used a step drill to mount it and a unswitched 12V outlet. Pretty happy with how it came out.

This is definitely form over function. I like the look, but my first thought is forgetting it's there and reaching for the grab handle.
I don't know that I have ever actually used that grab handle ever in any Bronco I have been in, so not an issue for me but I guess if you use it regularly then could be an issue.

Thank you for sharing this! This was my exact plan for whenever I get lights, I just hadn’t had the time to check the clearances behind that piece. Glad to know it works.
