side of the shifter always worked better for me, just have to try it and see for yourself.

we don't use a line lock but we have the three step and two step/transbrake buttons on the steering wheel. Use to have it multiple places down low near and on the shifter but driver likes this a lot better. everything is more compact and easier for him.

I use one button for both the lineloc and the transbrake on the steering wheel with toggle switch on the steering wheel also to turn on and off the transbrake ,switch up lineloc only ,down lineloc and transbrake is on -no chance of the car rocking on the transbrake and bulbing out !!

Here a pic of the micro switch I like to use , spring loaded with the roller on the end it makes it nice to roll your thumb off it , there on all electric irrigation pivots and are only about $10
