    I use two of the 13in mounts, one for each side of my plate. Each will hold two 6X9 flags or one 10X15. They have no problem with the fender on my RTL.

    I called them. While it's not on their site, it is available. However, they want $600 for just the dongle. You still have to buy everything else. I guess I'm back to having to learn to solder.
