Driving Computers

Post by 990 »

Hello Hello,

I recieved my 2nd Driving Computer today :)

However - I have a second one but it is missing the mounting arm and main wiring - is there a way to replicate this? :shock:

Then can have one in the 340 and the 360 :wink:

You've got two?!?! Poor bloke ;)

I'd imagine, from what I've seen of the instructions and Adams and Foggies, you could easily make the mounting plate, a bit of sheet ali would be easy enough to form, and you have a pattern there. As for the tubing, I was going to say 3/4" conduit, but not sure it'd be strong enough, but it's easier enough again to get hold of ali tubing to that size, then spray it with the plasti-kote cans from B&Q, they rule!
