Moved GPS today...

[bmwlarry]

For some time I have wanted to move my GPS from base of handlebars to dash top. Well, I did it today. I used Jthortons dash mount, 1 inch ball, long Ram bar & new wiring harness from GPS city. The wiring was $50, dash mount & ball was $48 and the Ram bar I had laying around. It was very easy to do. I left the OEM mount in place with rubber cover on and ran the new wiring along side the old wiring for the most part. I tapped into existing wiring using PosiTaps and it was good to go. I ran the wiring through a small hole I put in the dash seam and placed a small piece of velcro under the GPS mount just incase it decided to vibrate! I love it up there!!

I want to do the same thing. I was going to use the original wiring harness but couldn't figure out how to remove it. I never thought of getting a new harness. Great idea!!! I think I'm also going to get the correct parts to remove the GPS mount from the handlebars.

Thanks for the idea!!
