    Any body got any pics of your sunvisor and the traffic light viewer attched to your AD truck?
    I have a Fulton #800 to install then i was wondering how and where's the best place to mount the viewer?
    Thanx in advance!

    Thanx DeadZone,
    I had been told to place it in the middle of the windshield on the strip where you mount the rearview mirror but not to the side.
    That does make sence installing it on the side cause the visor stickes out
    further in the middle than the sides.
    HAGD,

    All the AD's in the L.A. area that have this cool item , have it attached to one of the inner trim screws along the bottom edge of the windshield as having the viewer mounted as low as possible , gives it a wider field of view .

    Between patching x-tra antenna and mirror holes I have had enough !:mad:
    I found a nice magnetic base on e-bay for my viewer and until I find the right place to mount it, that base works just fine.
    Thanx!
