The remote control replaces the standard kubota joystick, the front of the cab would be be in conflict with the joystick. If you are sitting in the cab the remote is a few inches in front of the right armrest, i can rest my arm and run the loader at the same time! Some people hate it because it does restrict access through the right door, no big deal for me as i always enter through the drivers side. There is a photo of the set up here somewhere, try a search, i think it was posted by jillbota>
