Using #8 screws through the rubber grommets in the base, mount the
THUNDER
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
THUNDER
as shown on page 7&8. Make sure the power lead comes straight from the master switch and
