Hey, how did that cost you, if you don't mind me asking ?
I think it was $175 American or around $240 Canadian. I was going to make my own but the way I figured, it would have cost me $100 for a break, even at Princess auto, then to figure it out, bend it, weld it, and finish it. Chooglin did a great job. Powder coated. And really easy to install. I took pictures for Monte. Haha. The block is 1/2 inch, drill a hole for the bolt, put box on, trace box, cut hole with a Drumell, fit it, a little silicone, put it in place , tighten bolt. It took me about an hour and 15 just playing in the garage, and listening to the Rankin family. Haha. Looks great. Tape was so silicone didn’t get everywhere.Thanks again Chooglin.
Looks great @Caper and good job on the how to !.........it's a little scary cutting a big hole in the dash
Easy pisy. I took it with me this morning and showed the guys st the Honda dealer here. You have lots of fans up here now, I expect you will be selling a few. A mechanic commentated on how well it was made. There you go. Probably a hour and fifteen minutes start to finish. Something I wanted from day one. And I have the second red 500 sold in Nova Scotia. From day one. Haha. Thanks again Chooglin, I’ll see if I can sell some for you up here.
I appreciate that and thanks for the exposure !
I’ve cut holes in things a lot more expensive, haha, but they weren’t mine. But all in all, it was a pretty easy install. It will be great for the phone, camp keys, and stuff. Haha.Looks great @Caper and good job on the how to !.........it's a little scary cutting a big hole in the dash

Your quite welcome. I was actually going to take it to the big bike show here tomorrow, but when I have something to get done. Haha.
And the Drumell worked perfectly. Easy to control. Then changed to the little sanding drum. Perfect. Don’t use it much, but it comes in handy.
