Default Gerbing dual control install (pics).

Double virgin here...first post and first modification. I know this is a Very Minor mod, but dang was I nervous drilling those holes in the dash!

Anyway, after searching for quite some time I never found anyone that had posted how they had mounted their Gerbing Dual Permanent Termostats. So, I sat down and pondered for a while and this is what I came up with.

The controls and LED are mounted up above the gauges while the connectors are mounted, using abel clamps, to the bottom of the dash. The extension that comes with the controls is long enough to get from the connectors to my seat so no other parts are required.

Hope the pictures get uploaded ok and that it's of interest to someone.

The funny part is that I can't even see the pics I uploaded. Keeps telling me that I don't have the authority. LOL!

Tried to embed them in the message, but wasn't able to figure it out. Maybe I'll figure it out before the next one. I'm guessing the uploads worked though, so no worries.

Nice job.

The only way to embed pictures (that I know of), is to upload the pics to a site like Photobucket, copy and paste the url of the photo in your post.

Looks like it was done in the factory - even better because you know the work was quality. Great job!
