• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Hi All,
I too get poor reception when Heidi is in the rear seat. Does the factory antenna have enough slack in the cable to move it up front and where is the best place to put it???


Thanx!!!!!!
Steve and Heidi
 
I cannot answer your question, but do know that Garmin makes antenna extension cables. At least they do for my Zumo 550's XM antenna. I have them on my Goldwing and Spyder RT.

On my RT there was a good bit of excess cable which was coiled up under the mounting bracket which secured the antanae. I don't know about all the way up front but if memory serves me there was several feet extra.
