Exhaust Brake switch

I have a 07 3500 Quad, auto. Going to Dodge to have an exhaust brake installed (factory), where do they put the switch?
Thanks in advance

depends if it is automatic or stick shift but usually on the shift handle if your going with the banks system. If you have a 6.7 turbo diesel it already has the exhaust brake factory installed.

Below the heater controls where the heated seat switch (I don't got it) and power sliding window switch are (don't got dat either!)

5.9 Automatic it will be on the shifter, so all you do is rest your hand on the shifter and pull the switch.
5.9 Stick it will be on the shifter with the button facing up, useually towards your two index fingers so you can just pull it. Or between your index and thumb if that suits you better.
6.7 it will be on the dash under the A/C and heater controls.

I wasn't happy with any of the switch options I found for my exhaust brake so I made my own housing that clamps onto the shifter stalk. It has a switch for the brake and a button to manually lock the torque converter.
