My Migsel Dash Mount arrived this afternoon and it took all of half an hour to fit it to the dash. Most of that time was taken removing, cleaning, and refitting the windscreen. Nothing difficult about the install so not worth taking stage photos but I'll post a photo of the mount in place tomorrow, just ran out of time to shoot it today! :grin

No pressure here, Couch, but the North Islanders are getting impatient. You're risking an invasion!

Right! That's torn it. :OldMan
I move that 2017 National Run not be NSW, but be Tasmania, and Couch is the Convenor!! :clap
That's a perfect invasion!!
Start saving, kiddies. The ferry ain't cheap.

++ Very Nice!

Very stylish. And it puts the GPS up into your line of sight so you don't have to look down so far.
However there's something weird about the Migsel website. My virus blocked warns of threatening content.

That's interesting, I don't know why that would be, I certainly never had a problem with it, and I never had a problem with dealing with them!

Which way have you decided to run your 12Volt ??

It's already done Chris, and you can see by the photo that you don't even notice the cable, it actually finishes up feeding into my tank bag where I have numerous options to plug into power. Rather than try to describe where I've laid the cable I'll shoot some further pics and post them up. I do have a Quartet Harness fitted and could attach it to that, or I could feed it directly to the battery or to a switched power source, but I sort of like the way it's worked out, and I can always change it if I choose to. I can't shoot the pics tomorrow as I'm heading into Hobart, but I will get it done over the weekend!
But I suggest you keep a packet of popcorn handy just in case I'm dragging the chain! :grin

Oh......and I have loaded all my iTunes music on to the Garmin, after converting it to MP3.........works perfectly!! :grin

ST1300 - Migsel Shelf Install
A couple of weeks ago I purchased a few farkles and thought I would share how the install goes. As of right now, the only thing I have to attach to the shelf is a Garmin Streetpilot 2820. This article may be too basic for those who have already installed some farkles, but this is meant to help people who may not have very much confidence to tackle the job. So, here goes.
The first step is to remove the windshield. Unscrew the covers with a Phillips screwdriver.
After removing the covers, use an 8mm wrench to remove the bolts that attach the windshield.
Next, there are 4 Phillips head screws in the dash that must be removed, 2 on each side.
The next step is to remove the pop rivets on the top. This is where the screws for the Migsel will be mounted. There are two more pop-rivets below and to the sides that need to be removed, but I didn't take a picture of the lower ones.
Now you should be able to slightly peel back the top. The metal threaded pieces from the kit fit inside the slots fairly snugly. I didn't take a picture of them before I put them in and I wasn't able to remove them. Sorry for the out-of-focus picture on this one.
There are several screws that come with the shelf, but the ones that are used to mount the shelf are the two hex screws.
Here is the Migsel mounted. The Migsel comes with only 1 ram ball. I had an extra ram ball from when I purchased my MCL risers.
Next, put the screws in the dash back in, then the pop-rivets. Then re-install the windshield. Here are some pics of the Migsel after the install. There are three places to mount the ram balls. Since the kit includes only one ram ball, there are also two plugs for the other holes. In the picture below, I have a plug in the middle hole.
With the 2820 installed.

It's a very easy installation! :grin

I finished up running it directly to the battery it makes for a much neater installation, of course running it through the quartet harness would be just as neat but would have involved much more work so I took the easy way out, just need to turn it off if I stop for any period of time! It won't be used all the time as I know my way around fairly well, but it'll be there when it's needed!! :grin
