I have my tablet mounted up on the ROPS above the windshield. It is powered via a USB cable so I want to add a USB port up there somewhere. Anyone have any ideas on a good way to do this? All the USB ports I find are either rocker switch size or the ones designed to go into a round hole in the dash.

I'm more looking for mounting ideas for a USB port. I don't want a long USB cable routed from under the hood to the tablet because USB cables always go bad. I'll route the accessory 12V into some type of USB port (like this or this or this or something else?). I just can't figure a good way to mount any of these up there.

I did this in my P1K5:


I bought one of these for the housing and wiring only:

Attwood 11862-6 Universal 12V Cigarette Lighter Adapter Socket Outlet for Marine/RV with Mounting Kit, Black

... then swapped the 12V socket for one of those round USB charger sockets (the blades on the back are the same), then I mounted the housing directly to the back of RAM tablet holder.

I have a different Ram tablet mount that doesn't have a nice place to mount the housing like yours, but I might can rig something up similar. Thanks.

Fixed yet another rattle on the JAH. The drivers door rattled because it did not close tightly. I adjusted the door latch inside the door but there is not enough adjustment allowed to make the door close tight so it still rattles. So I put one of those round felt pads that goes on furniture feet on the door where it meets the rubber stopper on the unit. Door is now quiet.

Update: see this post for the more better fix to the door rattle

There is a rubber bumper that you can adjust (turn in/out).

Thanks EMAW. I didn't realize that bumper was adjustable. I moved it out a little bit and no more door rattle 👍

After the MOM ride last weekend I decided I desperately need a windshield wiper. All of the wipers available are too long for the SuperATV flip windshield. After much research I finally found a 10" wiper. The only issue was the arm was angled and I needed it straight to fit the way I wanted so I straightened it. It fits perfectly. Unfortunately this wiper is like double the cost of all the other wipers but I really wanted a shorter one that fit correctly. @SuperATV you guys need to sell a 10" wiper with a straight arm for some of your not so tall flip-up windshields. This would also have fit my Yamaha Wolverine X2 perfectly as the 13" one I bought from SuperATV is a bit too long.
