Oh no. This opening seems very small.

Not totally impossible, but it would take some work. I jammed mine in the opening and used some sheet metal and velcro to hold the Scanguage in place.

I can try to make a mount for you if you can ship you overhead to me.

Found an ABS material whose color matches with Tan interior.

These parts are just out of printers without painting.

question on scan gauge installation: for the upper door panel is it just simply the two grab handle screws and start pulling from the top to release the clips?

I don’t quite get your question. Can you post a picture or something to clearly? Thanks.

Nevermind I figured it out. Thanks

That looks great. Can't wait to get it mounted.

Cool. I am glad you like it. I am going to print a final version in grey ABS. Your interior is grey, correct?

Yes, it's grey

 

[BenCC]

Yes, it's grey

Is the cable flexible? You see the printed back cover? Is there enough space for the cable?

Yes, it's flexible. It's one of those flat cat 5 cables

This stuff is cool. I have the Yaesu FT-8900R, it would be nice if it supported several types of units.
Adding in some red map light would finish that off nicely.

I am looking at this one. It is a red LED with a switch. But it is expensive.

The mount is unit specific. Otter send me his unit. The mount is modeled based on my measurement.

I can send you my 8900 face place if you are motivated.

I will complete Otter’s mount first. Then I need to work on a Scangauge on Lexus. I will let you know when I am about done on that. Should be in a couple of weeks. Thanks!
