Backup monitor May 25, 2011, 10:42:26 pm Yahoo Message Number: 7083The backup monitor in my 06 is in a the most terrible place, behind the visor. Has anyone found the mount that puts the monitor between the visors? I would like to move it to that more user friendly position. I have looked but I don't know the correct nomenclature. I have checked with web site for system but they don't list it. HelpDenny Quote Selected

I decided I will probably just have to buy a different monitor and mount it on the dash.Ken'05 Gulf Stream Conquest Super-C Quote Selected
Re: Backup monitor Reply #3 – May 27, 2011, 11:49:30 am Yahoo Message Number: 7089I agree the visor mount monitor is worthless. I replaced mine with a 7" Voyager and mounted it between the visors where it can be seen easily. Copy and paste this link for a picture.http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pUbsIGVrq-yoMwZsg-5RfeJK3BrAT0U5_P8EZIgMK9bHV917IhVS_3BlwZE21bD5HVO7MEYHGl5BiH_IX7p1-RA/Voyager%20Monitor1.jpg?psid=1 Quote Selected
Re: Backup monitor Reply #4 – May 29, 2011, 12:30:23 pm Yahoo Message Number: 7103I put the same set up in mine, but I don't have the swing down mount so the anti glare on the screen make mine a little hard to see from the drivers seat (fine from the passenge side of course). Where did you get the mount? Quote Selected
Re: Backup monitor Reply #5 – May 30, 2011, 04:32:40 pm Yahoo Message Number: 7106Tony, the rectangular plastic trim piece came with the Voyager monitor. It's designed for a flat surface mount and I simply cut a matching hole in the Seneca headliner and glued it in position. In order to get the correct viewing angle, I took a 1/4" alumimum rod and bent it into a "U" shape with 1/2" right angle ears on each end that insert into holes I drilled into the plastic frame. This bar pushes the base of the monitor out to a more vertical position for best viewing.Here's a picture from the side showing the light gray bar at the bottom of the monitor.http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pUbflHToplCEh0bcGleAvF5KJQfgblxLjuITTpfVJDfvlTGtxjl8aXZeRX0j8IrQ_fVI7-CsjAo93pARyfB_hGw/Camera%20Monitor%20Exteendedd.jpg?psid=1The bottom of the "U" shape bar runs along the back of the monitor and can be held in place with a small plastic cable tie.Craig Quote Selected
