I'm a leftie, and when running CW mobile, I simply put the paddle on the 
center pedestal, drive with my right hand and send with my left (arm 
crossed to the paddle). This works quite well for me. With the old '78 
Chevy wagon, the paddle was either at a convenient place on the bench 
seat or on top of the radio (it was 35 years ago, so don't remember 
details). :)

In later years, I ran CW mobile in my S80 Volvo, rig in the passenger 
seat, paddle on the center pedestal. One rig was an Omni V+, but I also 
used a TS850, which had the major advantage of a built-in tuner.
