Today the RAM mount came in, so I took 30 minutes and decided the best place to install that. I'll be taking pictures of all the install soon so you can check it out. I had a similar DGPS install in my old 40, but with a Global Nav 310, but it bit the dust after so many years of hard off roading.

Today I decided that I want to make a bracket and mount the DGPS beacon after all, instead of waiting for the ARB bumper since that's going to be a while. So that's going to be a fabrication job, and I'll be back under the dash soldering wires again in the next day or so.

My above dash custom console I have been contemplating is also going to be in the works next for fabrication. I want to eventually install a Sirius Satellite radio head unit there, and a Lowrance Baja 540C large screen GPS unit. Ok so I'll have 3 GPS units in my Cruiser (2 Lowrance, and the stock in dash street unit)...

I think the 540C will come after the HAM radio however since it costs more.
