| Think your portable GPS would work great mounted to your
old Cessna
| 172's instrument panel? If the FAA has its way, you
won't be able to
| mount it. The parts-panel dock and connective
wiring-needed to mount
| your portable GPS would either no longer be available or
be too
| expensive to buy.
|
| Perhaps I'm missing something, here. What is there to buy
besides a sheet
| of stock aluminum and a few screws? The "wiring" comes
with the portable
| GPS in the way of the remote antenna lead and power
connector.
