You may be able to use an "L" shaped bracket or piece of sheetmetal to let that switch hang below the dash. This way, you only need 1 or2 screws into the underside of the dash to mount it.
I have this cool looking tripple toggle switch bank that hangs under my dash next to the emergency brake release. I took a 5 inch wide L shaped bracket and cut out the middle to let the switch contacts poke through. Then I fastend the switch bank to the L bracket, which screws up into the underside if my dash.
I have also mounted the single toggle switches with 1/2" round hole. Those I just drilled the underside of the dash near the ignition switch. Also have drilled into face of dash near the headlight switch. Just be careful to have clearance and no wires behind where you drill.
