Using #8 screws through the rubber grommets in the base, mount the LIGHTNING away from heat, vibration and
the ignition system.
Make sure the driver can reach the buttons when strapped in and angle the unit, if needed, so the display can be
read straight on.
Wire the LIGHTNING as shown on pages 8-11. Make sure the power lead comes straight from the master switch
and the ground goes to a solid chassis ground, not sheet metal panels.
